Delhi DoE directs head of government schools to introduce skill subject

The Directorate of Education (DoE) department in Delhi has directed the heads of government schools to introduce a Skill subject for students studying at the Secondary and Senior Secondary levels.

However, in view of the NEP 2020, vocation education will be provided mandatorily to each student at the Secondary level (in classes 9th and 10th) in all the government schools from the academic session 2023-24, in accordance with the scheme of studies of CBSE, which will develop their knowledge through practical activities and boost the morale of students.

In this, a student can choose one subject at the secondary level, which helps the child to pursue what truly interests him/her.

Further, concerned Heads of Schools are also directed to take up the matter with CBSE for the students of Class 10 appearing in Board Examination 2024 before finalisation of LOC (List of Candidates).
