UPMSP School Affiliation : UP Board has not taken any decision on last year’s accreditation applications and website has been reopened for this year. Applications have been sought from schools till May 15 for new recognition. Applications can be submitted with late fee till 31st May.
Last year, 1079 schools had applied for recognition of high school and intermediate, additional subject and category. After studying the cases from the board headquarters level, the proposal was sent to the government. As a rule, all the cases of recognition should be disposed of by 30 November. Files are stuck even after five months of the deadline and a month after the session began. To curb corruption, the board had done the process of recognition online. Despite this, questions are being raised on the non-issuance of recognition order.
