Deliberate attempts are afoot to spread misinformation about the school curriculum revision, Minister for General Education V. Sivankutty has said.
He was speaking after inaugurating a two-day workshop organised by the Kerala School Teachers’ Association here on Saturday. The Minister said a note being circulated to mislead people had no connection to the General Education Department. The 71-page note ‘Arogyakaramaya bandhangal’ was unrelated to the department. A core committee had been formed for curriculum revision. Twenty-six focus groups had also been set up to prepare position papers on various issues.
Public discussions would be organised on the 26 subject areas. A 116-page draft note had been published for the discussions. The opinions of core committee members and focus groups would be sought, and at the core committee meeting on September 2, the draft public discussion note would be presented.
