Himachal Pradesh to Enforce Dress Code for Teachers in CBSE Schools

The Himachal Pradesh government has decided to implement a dress code for teachers working in its state‑run CBSE schools. The directive will apply to all teachers across the state’s CBSE‑affiliated institutions. The policy aims to standardise teachers’ appearance and promote a professional learning environment. Officials said the new guidelines will be communicated to schools in the coming weeks.

The education department will monitor compliance and provide support to schools in adopting the dress code. Teachers will be required to follow the specified attire guidelines during school hours. The move is part of a broader effort to improve school standards and discipline.

The announcement was made by the state’s education minister during a press briefing. No penalties for non‑compliance were mentioned, but schools will be encouraged to adhere to the new rules. The policy is expected to take effect from the start of the next academic term.
