Vijayawada: Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday directed the officials to include Byju's e-content in textbooks for students of classes 4 to 10 in addition to uploading them on tabs being provided to students.
Such initiatives will help them get good jobs once they complete their studies, he said. Reviewing the performance of the Education Department at his Tadepalli office near here, he said officials should take swift action without delay on reports emanating from the village secretariats on various issues related to running of schools.
He also ordered them to improve the quality of food being provided to students under the Jagananna Gorumudda Scheme. In response to the briefing of officials that, out of a total of 5,18,740 tabs intended to be supplied to the students of 8th class and teachers, 1.5 lakh tabs have already arrived for distribution, the Chief Minister said they should be ready for uploading the content also once all the tabs are ready.
He underlined the need to provide content in the shape of hard copies also. In view of the digitisation of classrooms, broadband facilities must be provided to all schools, he stressed, while agreeing to enhance the cloth size of the school uniforms.
