ANPSA memo to CM

All Nagaland Private Schools’ Association (ANPSA) has appealed to chief minister Neiphiu Rio to look into the financial constraints faced by private schools in providing facilities like laboratory equipment, playgrounds, physical education teachers and vocational teachers with requisite tools.
“Needless to say, the requirements far outstrip the available resources and to bridge the gap we would request the government for its intervention,” the association stated in a representation submitted to the chief minister Tuesday.
ANPSA also called upon the State government to take up the issue of lifting or relaxing the RAP/PAP for those students from other states and countries desirous of pursuing studies in Nagaland. The association pointed out that in recent years, some private schools in the State had received requests from many foreign students from the Far East for enrolment. “The interest appears to be for reasons such as the use of the English language as the medium of instruction and socio-cultural affinities,” ANPSA said.
