Adherence of Rules of Affiliation Bye-Laws in establishing and running of Educational Institutions.

It has been observed recently that there is a growing tendency among some 

of the Institutions to gain profit by imparting education.

The Management of the school has a critical and key role to play in providing 

a good and healthy climate to the school to fulfill its aim and objects, to enable the 

staff provide quality education and to be a centre for educational excellence. As 

envisaged in the Affiliation Bye-Laws of CBSE the Management of an affiliated 

school should ensure fulfillment of all the norms of the Board and to run the school as 

a community service and not as a business and that commercialization does not take 

place in the school in any shape whatsoever.  

The Society and Head of the Institution should ensure proper functioning of 

the School Managing Committee and see that the funds accruing from the school are 

spent for the benefit of the school and for its expansion alone.

The fee charged from the students should be commensurate with the facilities

provided by the institution and the following norms prescribed in the Affiliation Bye-

Laws of the CBSE strictly be adhered to.

 

Fees should normally be charged under the heads prescribed by the

Department of Education of the State/U.T. for schools of different 

categories. No capitation fee or voluntary donations for gaining 

admission in the school or for any other purpose should be charged or 

collected in the name of the school.  

In case a student leaves the school for such compulsion as transfer of 

parents or for health reason or in case of death of the student before 

completion of the session, prorata return of quarterly/term/annual fees

should be made.  

 

i i. The unaided school should consult parents through parents

representatives before revising the fees.  The fee should not be revised 

during the mid session.  

iv. The Society or Trust running the school should invariably consult the 

School Managing Committee for review of fees or other annual charges.

 

 

All the receipts and payments made by the school should be properly 

accounted and the annual audited accounts should be regularly filed 

with the Board every year.

 

vi. The premises of the school should not be used for any commercial 

activity and no commercial shops for sale of books, uniforms etc. be 

operated within the school campus.

Though, there is a need for the School Management to generate sufficient 

financial resources to guarantee the continued existence of the institution to 

meet the running expenses of the school to maintain it at a reasonable 

standard of efficiency, to pay salaries to teachers and other categories of staff 

regularly at least at par with the corresponding categories in the State 

Government Schools and to undertake improvement/development of school

facilities etc. but the School Management should not make profit out of it. In 

case of institutions which are in the receipt of grant‐in‐aid from the State 

Government/U.T. the permanent source of income shal include the amount of

grant‐in‐aid and such institutions while preparing annual budget should also 

take into account the same.  

Any violation of above provisions will be viewed seriously and can lead to 

disaffiliation of the school by the Board. Therefore, all concerned are

requested to strictly adhere with the norms of the CBSE in running 

educational institutions affiliated with the Board.
