PANJIM: As the Goa Board’s new academic year begins June 4, aided schools — both primary and secondary — will have to follow the old educational policy as the State has not notified the new Medium of Instruction (MoI) policy cleared by Cabinet. The new policy had envisaged making education in either Marathi or Konkani compulsory in all aided schools.
Besides the continuation of the old policy, the Directorate of Education (DoE) has declared schools will have to conduct classes for not less than five and half hours per day, excluding school recess with total 237 working days and 200 instruction days having been made mandatory.
