CHENNAI: The School Education Department has asked all district Chief Education Officers (CEOs) to update the online Education Management Information System (EMIS) with new enrollment details and also update details of existing students in government, aided and unaided schools. In accordance with the directive, the
CEOs have directed schools to furnish information on the EMIS portal. The updated details will be subsequently verified by the Education Department.
In a recent circular, the department had asked the CEOs to ensure linking of students’ Aadhaar with the EMIS at the earliest to prevent any chances of double entry or duplication of student details. Information on teaching and non-teaching staff should also be updated. Further, private schools have been asked to update details of students enrolled under the Right to Education (RTE) Act.
