DIMAPUR: Department of School Education (DoSE) has reminded all District Education Officers (DEOs), Sub-Divisional Education Officers (SDEOs) and school heads of Government Elementary Schools (GES) that the department has changed uniform for GES children.
According to DIPR report, DoSE said it has received reports that some school heads are still forcing their students to procure and wear old school uniforms contradicting departmental notification, which the department has viewed seriously.
Therefore, the department has directed all school heads to strictly implement school uniforms introduced by the department. DoSE has also stated that no children should be asked to purchase school uniforms at any cost, as it is the responsibility of the central and the state government to provide free school uniform to all the children studying in government schools or till completion of elementary education. It cautioned to initiate disciplinary action against those who violate the notification.
It may be noted that the department has changed school uniform for boys from grey trousers to navy blue trousers for boys, grey skirts to navy blue skirts for girls and white shirt to long-sleeve sky blue shirt for both boys and girls to improve the standard of school uniform being worn by the students and also to ensure the students are dressed appropriately and with dignity.
