How many Air Force Schools have been brought onto the ScrollControl child digital safety programme?
- A.24
- B.36
- C.42
- D.61
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 42. The Indian Air Force Educational and Cultural Society, working under Air Headquarters, placed 42 Air Force Schools on ScrollControl, a child digital safety programme run through the Information Sharing and Analysis Center Foundation. From those schools, 261 teachers finished a certification course as Cyber Crime Intervention Officers, so the count of schools and the count of teachers are two separate figures and should not be mixed up. Option A is wrong because 24 is no part of the announcement at all. Option B is wrong because 36 is not the figure given for the schools or for anything else in the rollout. Option D is wrong because 61 looks close to the teacher count but is not the figure for either the schools or the certified teachers. Candidates should remember the pair together: 42 schools and 261 teachers.
