Ten school dropouts were identified during a survey conducted by the Integrated Child Development Scheme at Terespuram here on Monday.
When the census to identify the school dropouts in the age between 6 and 18 was conducted at Terespuram on Monday, the team found the 10 children from this coastal area had stopped going to school.
After explaining to the parents about the importance of education, the officials told them that the children would be admitted in classes according to their age or level of understanding once the schools are reopened after the lockdown.
Moreover, a special coaching will be given to these children, said Block Resources Supervisor Amudha.
