After ‘Happiness Curriculum’ Delhi government introduces ‘Cleanliness curriculum’

After ‘Happiness Curriculum’ Delhi government introduces ‘Cleanliness curriculum’



On Wednesday, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia announced that after the success of Happiness Curriculum in the schools, Delhi government has decided to launch cleanliness curriculum in the schools to promote habits of cleanliness and hygiene among the students. In preparing the 'cleanliness curriculum' the government has sought suggestions from the stakeholders such as teachers and principals of government as well as private schools in the capital region. "While students are contributors of garbage in schools they have no role in cleaning it or maintaining the cleanliness. We want that students should develop these habits and take responsibility for cleanliness in schools," Mr. Sisodia said at an award function for clean schools. "In other countries, students are even responsible for mopping their classes, dusting the desks and watering plants. Students should have a sense of belongingness for their classrooms and school," he added. Mr.Sisodia, who is also Delhi's Education minister said, "The cleanliness curriculum will be activity based. Neither there will be any book for it nor a separate period will be allocated. I have asked for suggestions from teachers and principals about what activities can be included in the curriculum."
