Around 200 private schools in Faridabad face possible regulatory action after failing to submit mandatory Form-6 details on the education department’s MIS portal for the new academic session, according to a report by Live Hindustan – NCR published on September 11, 2026.
The schools were required to upload information about student fees and any proposed increase by September 9. With the deadline having passed, the education department is preparing to issue notices to the institutions and seek explanations for their failure to complete the process.
Officials said action against the schools will initially begin with notices rather than immediate cancellation of recognition. School managements will be asked why they did not submit the required information within the prescribed period and why action should not be taken for non-compliance with government directions.
The Form-6 process is mandatory for private schools at the beginning of every academic session. Schools are required to provide details of different fee components, proposed increases, the reasons for those increases and other information specified by the department. The information is intended to help the authorities monitor private-school fee structures.
The education department had opened the MIS portal for approximately two months after issuing instructions in April, when the new academic session began. Despite the available submission period, officials said a large number of schools did not complete the process. Faridabad has more than 1,000 private schools, making the non-submission by around 200 institutions a significant administrative gap.
According to officials, the department is preparing a list of schools that did not fill out Form-6. The list will be sent to the Directorate of Education after it is finalised. Some prominent private schools are also reportedly included in the list, although the report did not identify them.
District Elementary Education Officer Basant Kumar Dhillon said the department was taking a strict view of non-compliance in order to curb what he described as arbitrary practices by private schools. He said notices would be issued after the list was prepared and that school authorities would be asked to explain why Form-6 had not been submitted.
Dhillon said responses considered satisfactory would be reported to senior authorities. If the explanations were not satisfactory, or if the schools continued to disregard departmental instructions, the department would recommend action involving the closure of access to the MIS portal and cancellation of recognition.
The proposed action could affect the regulatory status of the schools, but the report does not state that recognition has already been cancelled. The immediate next step is the issuance of notices and the examination of responses submitted by the concerned school administrations.
