Andhra Pradesh: France govt. to help GVMC to establish model schools in Visakhapatnam
France govt. to help GVMC to establish model schools in Visakhapatnam
The France government is shocked to see GVMC-style model corporation schools.
The France government is shocked to see GVMC-style model corporation schools. It is helping to develop more schools. The French Development Agency (AFD), under the name City Investment to Innovate and Sustain (CITIS), has provided Rs 52 crore to provide the necessary infrastructure to 44 corporate schools in the Greater Visakhapatnam region.
The CITIS team has already met with students, their parents and GVMC officials on what development work should be undertaken with these funds and received suggestions from them. Visakhapatnam city administration is moving ahead with various projects to develop the city as a smart city. It is also making its mark in providing quality education to the students.
A total of 26 projects were selected for 15 cities in a competition held a year ago under the name CITIS Challenge, in which the Corporation won the GVMC Project Award for Modernization of Schools. The project attracted the French government. The French development agency (AFD), a French government subsidiary, has stepped in to develop more schools.
