HMs and thereby the time spent on academic activities  related 
role is reduced.

capturing  of photos in the  IMMS app was practically 
 checked  in  a school by higher 
 officials   of -the Department.   After 
detailed discussion on the time taken for capturing photos in app, it is
decided that;

through the HM’ login in such a
way that  all  teachers in the school wilt  be given
responsibility  to capture  photos on rotation  basis,
without  burdening HM     any particular  teacher
concerned.

2.   For example,  if  four  blocks of 
toilets are available  in school,  each teacher  may be
designated for a block or two on a particular  day depending on the
break available  to that  teacher.  The capturing  of
photos t· f the toilet  blocks can be taken at any time  in a
day.

3.   Boys block will   be given responsible for 
male teachers  and girls  block  for  female
teachers.

4.   The  concerned  HM shall  prepare  the
daily  schedule  for  the  teachers  in 
a  weekI
fortnight!   month by ensuring that all teachers   
get equal opportunity I responsibility.

inspections and photos capturing  in IMMS
app.                   
                   
                 
6.  CRPs also may be given responsibility  0t rotational 
basis.

7.  Only Education Welfare Assistants and other officials 
will  fill  in the inspection  form of TMF. However, 
the HMs! designated teachers will  capture toilet, 
 urinals, wash basins and floor  photos.     
                   
           .

 responsibility  of the concerned HM to ensure that  photos
related  to  Sanitation  are  captured  in 
the  IMMS app  any time  in  a day under  TMF
