A senior SSA official asked anonymity, because the list of other districts was being resolved, said, “In Coimbatore Regency, we can track that 24,977 students do not look actively involved in activities related to school.
If students are not involved in educational related activities.
For a month, We consider them not part of the school again.
”
The SSA team along with the school teacher found that most of these students who did not attend the class have left Coimbatore Regency, after losing their parents’ work because of Covid-19 pandemics.
The team can track that most of these students live in the original place of their parents.
With the support of the SSA authority in their respective districts they can re-register these students in schools and other educational institutions in the district where they stay now.
Surveys, according to SSA officials, have ensured that students return to school in one district or another.
Some students chose the Industrial Training Institute (ITIS) and Polytechnic courses after completing the 10th grade while school students under the 10th grade had rejoined schools.
SSA officials said, “We have traced the education status of 21,000 students who have dropped out of school in Coimbatore Regency and ensuring that 60 percent of these students returned to schools and itis and complete polytechnic courses.”
SSA officials tried to find students left and took them back to school.
The survey found that parents used their children as a maid in agriculture and raised cow, goats, chicken, but with a lack of consciousness against their children back to school.
However, with SSA intervention and teachers, parents have let children return to school.
SSA official said, “This is a complicated task and we feel that follow-up is needed so that students do not get out of school and their teachers have ensured our full support in it.
SSA will also build a network in each district and ensure that children keep going to school.
