The state government has redesigned the house uniform given to the students at elementary level under Pradhan Mantri Schools for Rising India (PM Shri) and Gangadhar Meher Sikhya Manakbrudhi Yojana. The identity card given to the Class I to VIII students will be also updated from the existing academic calendar.
Sources also informed that the current logo 'Ame Gadhibu Nua Odisha' of green colour, has now been modified as 'Bidyavant Vidyarthi, Bikashit Odisha' with orange, yellow and red shades. The same would now be printed on the house uniforms and caps given to the primary and upper primary students.
Besides this, the students will also receive redesigned identity cards in orange color, having information such as name, class, date of birth, roll number and contact details.
According to the letter that the Odisha School Education Programme Authority (OSEPA) has sent to all district education officers (DEOs), the newly redesigned students' kits to be distributed among students will consist of a T-shirt, track pants, cap, shoes and two pairs of socks. `500 per student has been sanctioned for this purpose.
The house system has been implemented in government and government-aided schools from 2023 academic year with the aim to develop team spirit, healthy competition and to generate the sense of belongingness among the students. The attire for the system consists of T-shirts of four hues - red, yellow, green, and blue - and blue track trousers.
During the last academic year, the state government has replaced the colour of school uniforms for students of Class IX and X. There was a mixture of light brown, chocolate and clay baked yellow colours introduced for the students to replace a mixture of green and white, which supposedly conformed to the colour code of BJD's party symbol
