Sub: Nomenclature of Odisha Adarsha Vidyalayas.
No. 21740–SME-SSE-SSE-0010/2016/SME.— The concept of Model School
was conceived by the Government of India, Ministry of Human Resource Development,
Department of School Education and Literacy, which was delinked from the support of
Government of India during the year, 2015-16 and transferred to the State/ Union
Territories for further appropriate action.
The Government of Odisha took over the responsibility and established the Odisha
Adarsha Vidyalaya Sangathan on 19th day of September, 2015, a society under Society
Registration Act.
Due to two types of nomenclature i.e. “Model School” and “ Odisha Adarsha
Vidyalaya” in Revenue and other official records maintained at different level and also in
the office of CBSE, confusion arises in many cases.
In order to overcome the above confusion, Government in School & Mass
Education Department have decided that all the schools established in the name of “Model
School,” “Odisha Adarsha Vidyalaya” running under the Society “Odisha Adarsha
Vidyalaya Sangathan” and the schools proposed to be established under the society in
future shall be known/ recoded for all purposes in its brand name of “Odisha Adarsha
Vidyalaya” followed by the detail address of the Vidyalaya where it is located.
