Delhi’s education dept withdraws order derecognising Bal Bharati Public School Pitampura – Education News

The Directorate of Education (DoE) has withdrawn its October 1 order derecognising Bal Bharati Public School, Pitampura. This comes after the school moved the Delhi High Court. The court has now laid out a procedure for DoE to follow, giving the school opportunities for hearings if it wishes to issue a fresh order against it.

The DoE had issued the order withdrawing its recognition of the Bal Bharati Public School on grounds that it “illegally” increased fees in the years 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 without its approval.

The order had directed that the school would not be allowed to take new admissions from the 2022-23 session. It further said the school could continue functioning till the end of this academic year, after which students would be shifted to nearby private schools run by the Child Education Society or nearby government schools.

Following this, the school petitioned the High Court against two orders issued by the DoE — the first being the order withdrawing its recognition, and the other being an order dated August 16 in which the DoE had rejected the statement of fees submitted by the school for 2019-2020.
