Also, they are co-educational and residential schools that provide education from classes VI to XII standard. The students at the JNVs are from India’s rural areas; they receive quality education, irrespective of their backgrounds.
The education and boarding costs of the JNV pupils are borne by the Government of India for the 7 years that they stay at the schools.

JNVs: Historical Background
Former Prime Minister of India, Rajiv Gandhi, spearheaded the setting up of the JNVs, under the National Policy on Education of 1986. The objective was to provide excellence and social justice. The NVS became a registered body as per the Societies Registration Act of 1860. The plan of the Government of India was to establish one JNV in each of the country’s districts and in a phased manner.
JNVs: Academics
As mentioned earlier, the JNVs have classes for VI to XII. More so, they offer education in streams such as Arts, Science and Commerce for Classes XI to XII.
Further, JNVs offer a range of amenities to the pupils – including smart classes. Besides, they invest in creating an atmosphere that is ideal for knowledge dissemination.
JNVs: Organizational Structure
The NVS operates as per the instructions of the Executive Committee that functions under the Chairmanship of the Minister of HRD. Also, there are 2 sub-committees that are appointed to assist the Executive Committee; these include the Finance and Academic Advisory ones.
Furthermore, the Samiti’s Executive Committee has a Commissioner who is the Executive head of the Administrative team. At the Headquarters level, he is assisted by Assistant, Deputy and Joint Commissioners; and at the Regional level, by Assistant and Deputy Commissioners.
JNVs: Three-language Pattern
As part of the JNVs efforts to facilitate migration, there is a three-language pattern for Classes VI to IX. The languages include English, Hindi, and Regional ones. They are grouped under A level, B-I level, and B-II level; and as per the category of states that are Hindi-speaking, Non-Hindi Speaking (with the exclusion of the North East states), and North-East states.
Nonetheless, CBSE requires the pupils to study only in 2 languages, thus the students have to appear for only A level and B-I level languages during the CBSE exams.
