APAAR ID
Context
Activists and parents have raised concerns over the rapid push by schools to generate APAAR IDs for students, despite its voluntary nature.
What is the APAAR ID?
- APAAR (Automated Permanent Academic Account Registry) is a key initiative under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 for maintaining academic records digitally.
- APAAR is part of the "One Nation, One Student ID" initiative, designed to digitally store students’ academic records for seamless transition between schools and higher education institutions.
- It is linked to Aadhaar and stored in DigiLocker, making it easier for institutions to verify academic credentials.
- The Education Ministry has directed CBSE-affiliated schools and some state boards to achieve 100% enrolment of students in APAAR.
- Is APAAR Mandatory? Officially, APAAR is voluntary. However, CBSE circulars and state directives do not clearly inform parents of this.
