      <title>Govt sets new building rules for private schools in Karachi</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30334215/govt-sets-new-building-rules-for-private-schools-in-karachi</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The government of Sindh has lifted the ban on new school registration in Karachi, but it has set new and tougher rules for private schools.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A fresh policy issued by the interim government of Sindh regulates the building requirement for schools and advises administrators to provide free education to at least 10% of students.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The policy restricts school owners or administrators from opening schools in small houses. It says preprimary, primary, and elementary schools must have at least ten rooms in a building constructed on 1800 square feet of land.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For secondary schools, the policy said, it will be mandatory to construct a building of 15 rooms on 2160 sq. ft. of land.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The entire infrastructure of the building should made of Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;School administrators will be bound to submit all details such as approved architecture maps, details of equipment, and certificates of teachers being hired to the education department.&lt;/p&gt;
