Chandigarh Schools Get Digital: Vidya Samiksha Kendra Mandate
The Chandigarh Education Department has directed all private schools to integrate with the Vidya Samiksha Kendra (VSK), a comprehensive data-driven platform. This move, effective immediately, aims to significantly improve the quality of education across the city.
VSK will serve as a central repository for crucial school data, including attendance records, assessment results, and administrative information. This centralised system will enable efficient monitoring and analysis of educational performance.
The initiative is designed to facilitate data-driven policymaking, ensuring equitable access to quality education for all students. The department believes this digital integration will help identify areas needing improvement and enable targeted interventions.
This integration is expected to bring transparency and accountability to the private education sector in Chandigarh. The long-term impact will be keenly observed, particularly in bridging the existing gaps in educational outcomes across different socioeconomic groups. Parents and education stakeholders await the tangible benefits of this significant technological upgrade.
