UP govt begins construction of modern CM composite schools across 39 districts

To advance educational modernization and ensure inclusivity, the Uttar Pradesh government has initiated the development of Chief Minister Composite Schools across 39 districts in the state.

A government spokesperson stated, "In addition to these 39 schools, the govt will soon begin construction in 10 more CM Composite Schools. For the remaining 26 districts, financial approvals and land selection processes are in their final stages."

Previously, the government had committed to setting up one such school in every district. As of now, all necessary clearances — including financial approvals and land allocation — have been secured for the 39 districts where construction is underway or set to commence shortly.

"These modern schools are being built on 5-10 acres of land, with each costing around Rs 30 crore. Six major agencies have been roped in to expedite the construction work," the spokesperson added.

Highlighting the features of the new institutions, the official said, "These schools will focus not only on quality education but also on skill development, sports, facilities, and student safety. Each school will have 30 smart classrooms, a digital library, a computer lab, modern science labs, a mini stadium, and a large playground."
