NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released a notification, emphasizing the role of regular schooling in the success of students.
“Schools provide a structured learning environment that nurtures not just academic excellence but also essential life skills, social interaction, and emotional well-being,” a notification issued by the CBSE said..
It is crucial that students, parents, and educators prioritise institutions that align with national education standards and uphold the true essence of learning. “While coaching institutes may supplement learning, they cannot replace the comprehensive educational experience offered by a full-fledged school system. Success in competitive exams should not come at the cost of quality education and overall development,” the CBSE added.

The CBSE notification cited a recent report in a newspaper that highlighted the success of a student in the JEE (Mains) examination, attributing his achievement to enrolment in a non-attending (dummy) school.
“While the accomplishment of the student is commendable, it is imperative to address certain misleading implications in the report. It has been found out that the institution with which the student was enrolled namely SGN Public School, H-243, Kunwar Singh Nagar, Nangloi, Delhi-110041, was disaffiliated by the Board last year,” it said.
“The Board has conducted surprise inspection of the school by a two-member committee and it was established that the school was sponsoring non-attending students, besides multiple other violations of norms. This raises concerns about the legitimacy of school’s academic practices and underscores the need for students to pursue their education through recognised institutions that adhere to national educational standards,” the notification reads.
Earlier, the CBSE issued show-cause notice to 29 schools in January for violating rules and regulations laid down by the board.
