The child rights body of the Delhi government has issued a show-cause notice to 151 schools in Delhi as these schools did not have special educators for the children with special needs. All these schools have been warned of a strict action against them if they fail to appoint a special educator in the coming six weeks.The DCPCR said “the schools either have to certify within 15 days of the receipt of the notice that a special educator is already engaged in the school or appoint one within six weeks of the notice.”"In case, the school is unable to appoint a special educator within the given time, the school is directed to show a cause of the same, failing which the commission would be constrained to recommend to the board (CBSE) the initiation of disaffiliation of the school," the notice read.The notice said that in 2015, the Central Board of secondary education had directed all schools to appoint a special educator to ensure quality education for all the students, including the ones with the special needs.
