The School Management

The School Management Committee (SMC) in a CBSE-affiliated private school should consist of a maximum of 21 members, including parents, teachers, and representatives from other schools or the Board. At least 50% of the members should be women. The composition ensures a mix of voices from different stakeholders in the school’s management.

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

 Parents: A significant portion of the SMC should be comprised of parents of students currently enrolled in the school.
 Teachers: Two teachers from the school itself should be included.
 External Teachers: Two other members who are or have been teachers at other affiliated schools or colleges should also be part of the SMC.
 Board Representatives: Two members should be nominated by the CBSE Board.
 Other Members: The remaining members, up to a maximum of 21, can be nominated or elected as per the rules and regulations of the society/trust/company running the school.
 Proportionate Representation: There should be proportionate representation of parents/guardians belonging to disadvantaged groups and weaker sections.
 Vice Chairperson: The Vice Chairperson should be elected by the parent
members of the SMC from amongst themselves.
