The
Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti is an Autonomous Organization under the Ministry
of HRD, Govt. of India, which has been set up to establish & manage
co-educational, residential school covering classes VI to XII known as
Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas.
The National
Policy on Education 1986 envisaged establishment of a Navodaya Vidyalaya in
each District of the country. The first two schools were started in 1985-86
on experimental basis. The number of schools has now grown to 509 spread
over 34 Union States and Union Territories. Out of these, 485 schools are
functional. These schools have over 1.58 Lakhs students on rolls. Navodaya
Vidyalayas are fully residential and co-educational schools covering
classes VI to XII. Education in the Vidyalayas is free for all enrolled
students including lodging, boarding, text books, uniforms etc. The
Vidyalayas seek to promote and develop talented,
bright and gifted children predominantly from rural areas who may
otherwise be denied good educational opportunities.
These Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas are affiliated to the Central Board of
Secondary Education (CBSE) and impart the CBSE curricula. Admission to
Vidyalayas is made at the class VI level through open test conducted at
District level by CBSE. About 32,000 students are admitted every year.
These JNVs have been doing very well on the academic front in comparison to
other school systems affiliated to CBSE. Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti through
its eight Regional Offices ensures all round development of the personality
of the children by providing good academic guidance apart from input in
other non-scholastic areas by providing good facilities for sports, NCC,
Scouts & Guides, adventure activities and computer education etc. One
of the salient features of the Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme is migration under
which 30% of children studying in Class IX from a Navodaya Vidyalaya in a
Hindi belt gets shifted for studies to a Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya of
non-Hindi area and vice-versa and thus helps to promote National
Integration.
