Schools must provide separate toilets for CwSN boys and girls with enough space for wheelchairs or walkers: Check updated CBSE guidelines for students with special needs

The CBSE has updated its guidelines for schools accommodating children with special needs (CwSN). Schools must now provide detailed information about classroom locations, ensure barrier-free access with ramps and accessible facilities, and maintain clear, slip-resistant pathways. These changes aim to enhance inclusivity and compliance with the Rehabilitation of Persons With Disabilities Act 2016 and the National Education Policy.
