What are cluster schools?

Cluster schools are centres of excellence (within each school grouping) focusing on niche areas like music, sports, ICT, sciences, languages and special education. 

300 schools will be in the pioneer group. 

Applications will be open to all schools. 

To help schools write their proposals, the guidelines and criteria will be published in March. 

A special select committee comprising experts will be established to vet through applications and shortlist them for final approval.
