UP To Honour Student Achievers In 1.31 Lakh Council Schools Under Annual Awards Programme

Lucknow, September 09: The Uttar Pradesh government, under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's leadership, has launched a significant initiative to recognize the talents of children in council schools. This move aims to acknowledge achievements in academics, regular school attendance, sports prowess, and cultural contributions. Every form of accomplishment will be showcased and encouraged through award distribution ceremonies in 1,31,918 council schools across the state.

These events will take place between February 15, 2027, and March 15, 2027. Elected representatives of the Gram Panchayat, School Management Committee members, parents, and other concerned individuals will be invited. Teachers are encouraged to personally invite attendees, along with cards prepared by the students.

The program emphasizes the importance of recognizing children's efforts and encouraging them to excel further. Teachers will present awards to the top performers in each class, including one boy and one girl with the highest marks, the best attendance record, and outstanding performances in sports, cultural activities, and competitions.

Additionally, parents of children who have secured top marks or had the highest attendance will be honored. Members of the School Management Committee who have contributed to the school's activities and programs will also be recognized.

To motivate all participants, school supplies, chocolates, and creative materials may be distributed. Other awards may include lunch boxes, water bottles, drawing notebooks, stationery items, storybooks, shawls, and locally available green plants for parents. A robust monitoring mechanism has been established, with various officials from the District Institute of Education and Training to the Block Education Officer overseeing the program in multiple schools across different blocks.

Yogi Adityanath's government aims to foster a positive, achievement-oriented environment in government schools, strengthening children's confidence and motivation through this initiative.
