The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has taken strict action against Dummy schools and has abolished the affiliation of 21 schools in Delhi and Rajasthan. Apart from this, six other schools have been downgraded.

Dummy schools are institutions where students do not appear regularly in classrooms, but only participate in board examinations. Often, these students depend on coaching institutes to prepare for competitive examinations like engineering or medical and do not make minimum attendance in the school. This practice is against the basic spirit of the education system and hinders the overall development of the students."gmail_default" Style ="Text-Align: justify;"> CBSE action "gmail_default" Style ="Text-Align: justify;"> & nbsp;
According to media reports, CBSE conducted surprise inspections in 29 schools of Delhi, Bengaluru, Varanasi, Bihar, Gujarat and Chhattisgarh in December 2024. It was found in these inspections that in many schools, students were not present in regular classes, which indicates dummy entry. Based on these findings, the board issued a show cause notice to 18 schools and canceled the affiliation of 21 schools."gmail_default" Style ="Text-Align: justify;">
