Dear sir/madam Greetings from Mr.Sethu Rama Varma. At the outset, I thankyou for visiting us and sparing your valuable time with us. Sir, I share with you, certain ideas regarding this portal. Coimbatore is replete with the instance of long history of the establishment of renowned educational institutions and industrial establishments. There may be disparities in the facilities and opportunities of the people based on their economic background. Notwithstanding this, and with a view to giving an equal qualitative education to all, efforts had been undertaken by the department of education for the past 20 months to improve the infrastructure facilities of government schools on par with schools already enjoying these privileges. Hence , the creation of a separate website for the government schools. 1.Number of schools, teachers and students in the district | Classification of schools | No. of schools | No. of students | No. of teachers | | Union | 1,848 | 1,04,180 | 5,187 | | Government | 170 | 3,47,409 | 3,196 | | Municipal | 97 | 46,268 | 977 | | Corporation | 88 | 32,395 | 1,543 | | Aided | 248 | 1,69,840 | 3,187 | | Self Financing | 26 | 8,992 | 238 | | Adi Dravida Welfare | 42 | 5,255 | 116 | | Matriculation | 343 | 2,18,411 | 9,137 | | Anglo Indian | 2 | 4,234 | 138 | | Nursery | 413 | 14,526 | 3,475 | | Total | 3,277 | 9,51,510 | 27,194 | 2.Contents of the web A compilation of data has been prepared pertaining to the identification of infrastructural facilities prevailing in government high and higher secondary schools. The data includes no of students, class rooms needed, class rooms to be repaired, class rooms in good condition, additional class rooms needed, accomplishment of lab facilities, equipments needed, drinking water facilities, toilet facilities, electrification, compound wall, cycle stand, number of trees for protection of environmental concerns, educational assistance like uniform, instruments box, note books etc, needed for the disadvantaged and the underprivileged. More over, it also includes particulars of student enrollments, percentage of passes of the schools in the past 5 years. A separate abstracts of the overall needs of the schools is furnished in the web. To collect a comprehensive data, 66 headmasters of 22 blocks were selected and given pragmatic training so that the data collected proves to be accurate and effective. 3.Sources provision for quality education is the essential ingredient which has to be acquired as a matter of fundamental right of our constitution. It is also the moral obligation of the government which is enshrined in the directive principles of the constitution. For the upgradation of the infrastructural amenities, sarva shiksha abiyan, AGAM thittam MP's & MLA's local area development program and NABARD have played a vital role to large extent. Even then the government is not in a position to meet out the entire requirement to the fullest satisfaction of the needs arising.
