The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has alerted parents about 13 unauthorised schools operating in Pune for the 2026-27 academic session. These institutions do not possess valid government recognition, which could lead to serious academic setbacks for students. The PMC has advised parents to avoid enrolling their children in these schools to prevent potential academic loss and uncertainty in their future education. The list of unauthorised schools includes names such as Millennium Star English Medium School in Bibvewadi and Mahatma Gandhi Prashala in Yerwada. PMC officials are taking steps to ensure these schools cease operations, including displaying warning boards and issuing public notices. Parents are encouraged to verify a school's recognition status before the admission process begins. This initiative aims to safeguard students and ensure they receive education from officially approved institutions.
