Presently, English medium is being provided in about 5,000 government schools. Answering to a question raised by R Krishnaiah (TDP), Srihari, on the suggestion of the members said that Anganwadi centers would be utilized for kindergarten, play school, and nursery which will be synchronized with nearby government primary schools for their admission.

He told the House that the government would ensure that at least one functional toilet for boys and girls each was available with running water by June 15 this year in every school across the State.

On recruitment of teachers, Mr. Srihari told the House that recruitment of 8,792 teachers for government schools and 7,600 teachers for residential schools would be completed by the Telangana State Public Services Commission (TSPSC) at least in the next six months.

Similarly, digital classrooms would be commenced in 5,600 high schools during 2017-18 in addition to 3,400 this year.

Students studying in government and residential junior colleges were identified subject wise and special coaching classes were conducted to improve their results in NEET, EAMCET and other exams.
