Various Committees and Commissions

Recommendation of various committees and commissions of NPE-1986 on educational complex:

National Policy on Education, 1986 says, ” A very important role must be assigned to the head of an educational institution. Heads will be specially selected and trained. School complexes will be promoted on a flexible pattern so as to serve as networks of institutions and synergic alliances to encourage professionalism among teachers to ensure observance of norms of conduct and to enable the sharing of experiences and facilities. It is expected that a developed system of school complexes will take over much of the inspection functions in due course.”

In July 1991, CABE ( Central Advisory Board of Education) Committee on the policy which is popularly known as the Janardhan Reddy committee, under the chairmanship of the chief minister of Andhra Pradesh and comprising sis other education minister belonging to the major political parties and eight educationists, was constituted to review the implementation of various parameters of the NPE, 1986 taking into consideration the report of the committee for the review of the NPE(NPERC) and other relevant development since the Policy was formulated.
