DIMAPUR — Government Middle School Longya, Kiphire town, held a blood group testing camp at its premises on Wednesday. The school administration specifically invited a clinic technician to attend to the students.
According to a press release, the head teacher stated on the occasion that the testing fees were covered by the teachers pooling their resources together.
The release noted that entering the blood group into UDISE Plus is required, but some students cannot afford the fee. Consequently, after a meeting, the teachers chose to handle this task themselves, according to the head teacher
UDISE Plus, which stands for Unified District Information System for Education Plus, is an education management information system in India. It collects, compiles, and analyses data on various aspects of the education sector, such as student enrolment, teacher details, infrastructure, and other educational indicators.
This system aims to monitor and improve the quality of education by making data available to policymakers, administrators, and educational institutions.
It mentioned that although the GMS Longya is located in Kiphire town, it is not accessible by road or footpath and the students and teachers face significant challenges in reaching the school.
