The Board functions under the ageis of Ministry of HRD, Government of India. In the year 1986 the Board came up with the concept of 'SAHODAYA' literally meaning 'rising together' to facilitate synergy of ideas among the schools of CBSE, for excellence in education. The concept of Sahodaya is imbued with the spirit of 'caring and sharing' and is meant to facilitate closer networking and collaboration among the schools of the CBSE family. The Sahodaya School Complex is a group of neighborhood schools who voluntarily come together to share best practices and innovative strategies in various aspects of school education including curriculum design, evaluation and pedagogy and also in providing support to teachers by regular capacity building exercises. It is a unique and interactive platform for all CBSE affiliated schools to share their experience, to work jointly for scholastic and co-scholastic excellence, to deliberate upon the different policies and guidelines of the Board and to provide effective feedback on their implementation to establish new benchmark of qualities. At present, there are around 200 active Sahodaya School Complexes (SSCs) across the country. In order to bring all (SSCs) on a common platform, the Board in association with a Sahodaya School Complex conducts a National Annual Conference of Sahodaya School Complexes on an identified theme of current educational relevance. Besides facilitating broad interactions among practitioners, it also serves as an effective platform for building closer bonds between schools and the CBSE and thereby helps the Board in formulating its policies in a progressive and pragmatic manner. The deliberations on the issues arising out of the Conference theme trigger meaningful thought processes which are then encapsulated in the form of recommendations and disseminated to the other members of the Sahodaya School Complexes. The 25th National Annual Conference of Sahodaya School Complexes was organized by Sahodaya School Complexes of Delhi NCR on 1st and 2nd November 2019 on the theme 'NaiTaleem- For a Sustainable .Future' 2 SahodayaREPORT HOST SAHODAYA SCHOOL COMPLEXES Indraprastha Sahodaya Sankalp Sahodaya, School Complex , Delhi Delhi South Delhi Sahodaya School Sarv Sahodaya, Complex Delhi Delhi Sahodaya Abhyuday Schools Complex Sahodaya, Delhi Sahodaya Schools Sahodaya Schools Complex, Complex, Ghaziabad Chapter Gurgaon Chapter 3 SahodayaREPORT COMMITTEES CORE COMMITTEE 1.
