“The course will be conducted from June 2018 in selected schools by teachers from British Council, India-McMillan Education, Academy for Computers Training (Gujarat) and Trinity College London,” said the notification.

Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia tweeted that the last date for enrolment to the course is May 23,.

Expressing his happiness over the decision, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, “Government school students mostly come from economically poor backgrounds.
