CBSE asks students to fill up the feedback form

This exercise is part of the ministry of human resource development (MHRD) to develop a new education policy by getting feedback from all stakeholders.

Only students of classes 5 to 12 can rate their school and give suggestions for improving teaching content. A different questionnaire for students from Classes 5 to 8 and for Classes 9 to 12 have been prepared.

The questionnaires consist of 22 questions each and students have to fill in details like their name, class and school details in the same.

"Questionnaire will be kept confidential. But since there is no authentication system in place in the online form, it is very easy for anybody to use a fake name and submit the feedback. So students are requested to be completely honest while filling the same so that serious step could be taken for improvements," the board informs.

Questionnaire Pattern:

The starting part of the questionnaire demands information about the student, name and location of school and how far it is from his/her residence
Feedback regarding the level of safety in specific areas of the school like playground, corridors, classrooms and toilet have to be given
Students are expected to inform if their school provides infrastructure for those who are differently abled.

How interesting and useful is the teaching content which is used in class will also be asked.
It is not compulsory for the students to fill the feedback form but the interested candidates have to fill in the same and submit it by October 5
