HP Education Board revokes accreditation of 294 private schools

Shimla, Nov 7 (UNI) The Himachal Pradesh School Education Board (HPSEB) has revoked the accreditation of 294 private schools across the state for violating board rules by teaching books from private publishers instead of the board-prescribed curriculum.
Education Board Secretary Dr Major Vishal Sharma said it is mandatory for all accredited private schools to follow board-certified textbooks. “Clear instructions had been issued earlier. Recently, the board examined bills and records of books purchased for students, and 294 schools were found violating the board’s curriculum,” he said.
Currently, around 1,400 private schools in the state are accredited for grades 9 to 12. At the time of accreditation, schools sign a contract agreeing to follow the board-prescribed curriculum and textbooks. However, many schools ignored this requirement.
