Standard of education in Madhya Pradesh has definitely gone up,
especially during the regime of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. During
earlier regimes, no one could have thought even in his wildest dreams a school
in the state capital, that too a government school, will tie up with a British School for an online common study of
various subjects by the students of two schools situation thousands of miles
away from each other. However, the present State Government has made it
possible, reports SMS News & Features.

Bhopal and England’s famous Ormiston Park Academy are working on a novel
two-year Project Connecting Classroom.
