CBSE has warned schools against operating coaching institutes for entrance exams or conducting parallel classes in its premises besides charging fees which are not commensurate with the facilities.
Running of classes of coaching institutions in school premises on the pretext of providing coaching to students for various entrance examinations is not approved by the Board, CBSE said in a circular.
Some schools are organising such programmes by naming it as an integrated school programme that teaches both CBSE syllabus and prepare students for various entrance tests to “mislead” the students and their parents, it said.
“The premises of CBSE schools should not be used for any commercial activity. Every school should ensure devotion of minimum periods for teaching various subjects as per the syllabi and course prescribed by the Board.
