Bathinda, February 5
The monthly meeting of District Education Officers (DEOs ) of the state was held at the Government Girls Senior Secondary School, Maluka, today. The anti-copying campaign, launched by Education Minister Sikander Singh Maluka, in August last year, remained the highlight of the meeting. The meeting was also attended by the Additional Director General of School Education, Parampal Kaur Maluka, Additional Secretary Gurdeep Singh, DPI (Secondary Education) Kamal Garg, DPI (Elementary Education) Darshan Kaur, Punjab School Education Board Chairman Tejinder Kaur Dhaliwal and others.
Addressing the DEOs and other officers of the Education Department, the minister said, “Plugging all loopholes in the security system to root out the evil of cheating should be the focus of all the schools in the state this examination season. The lax attitude of the examiners is as much to be blamed as the students. The examiners will have to make sure that students don’t succeed in copying during an examination.”
Harping back to the launch of the state-level anti-copying campaign in August last year, he appreciated the efforts of the DEOs and principals of the government schools in reducing the instances of cheating in schools under them.
“When we allow a student to cheat, we are helping him ruin his future. Cheating may bring good marks but it will be harmful for the student's professional career where his skills and knowledge will be tested at every stage, everyday,” he added.
He also directed the DEOs to prepare a master plan of all the schools and list in detail the individual needs and requirement of the schools under them. “We are doing well in the field of education but a lot more remains to be done. To make sure that the enrolment rate increases in the government schools and our students are able to compete with the students of private schools, we will have to make sure that we first upgrade the infrastructure of the schools and extend all the basic facilities to the students and staff members,” he said.
The official website of the Government Boys Senior Secondary School, Maluka, was also launched on the occasion. Students of several schools from across the state participated in the competitions conducted after the meeting.
Akjeet Kaur of Amritsar won the sewing competition while Mandeep Kaur of Faridkot won the chart-making competition.
