Preparations are being made to implement it in the entire state. He said that we will also take feedback. We are trying to bring all our schools on camera.

In the second phase, aided and unaided schools of the district will also join the campaign. 360 aided schools of the district will join the campaign. In this way, classes will be monitored online. According to Deputy Education Director Divya Kant Shukla, online monitoring of classes will be done only to improve the level of education.
UP Board Secretary Divya Kant Shukla said that the special thing about this project is that no extra expenditure will have to be incurred on this campaign. UP Board had installed CCTV cameras in schools for monitoring during the examination. With the help of these cameras, the classes were monitored during the examination. Now with the help of these cameras, the classes are also being monitored online. He expressed hope that with the use of cameras, the quality of education in secondary schools will improve further.
It is worth noting that more than 27 thousand schools are associated with the Board of Secondary Education i.e. UP Board. Online monitoring was arranged to ensure fairness, transparency and purity of the 10th and 12th examinations. Online monitoring of examination centers was done from the UP Board headquarters and the control room set up in Lucknow. With this, cheating-free examinations could be conducted in the entire state. Now there is a plan to improve the quality of education through this pilot project. With this, children studying in government inter colleges will also be able to make a place in the merit list.
