According to reports, Chennai’s Korattur school, under the Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC), faces challenges despite being upgraded a decade ago.
Key highlights:
• 16,497 new admissions recorded for 2025-2026 academic year in GCC schools.
• Shortage of classrooms and teachers in several GCC schools.
• 1,152 teaching and administrative vacancies remain unfilled.
• Lack of basic facilities like seating for middle and primary classes.
This situation underscores the urgent need for improved infrastructure and resources in Chennai’s public schools to ensure quality education for students.
