As a part of its efforts to overhaul the education system in Andhra Pradesh, the government is adding a new feature to the State-run schools, giving yet another reason for parents to send their children to these institutions.
The Cabinet on July 12 (Wednesday) approved the proposal of the government to enter into joint affiliation with global board certifications of International Baccalaureate (IB), Cambridge or any other equivalent certification.
Sources in the Department of Education said that the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT) would appoint academic experts in the existing vacant posts through lateral entry on a contract basis to address the requirement of critical and analytical curriculum for students.
