The latest affirmation by K.A Sengottaiyan, School Education Minister to the press on Wednesday assured the recruitment of new teachers to fill the vacancies in government schools. However the special part time teachers in government schools may not get full time positions with employment operations of School Education department said the sources of the ministry.
An estimated 82,000 teachers were qualified in between the years 2013 and 2015. The taken employees were kept in the waiting list zone owing to limited vacancies in government schools. Now the School Education Minister assured the filling of the vacancies will move on a full swing for the recruited teachers. The latest recruitment system will analyze the educational and teaching qualifications of the selected candidates that acts as a weightage for the placement in schools.
Teacher’s Recruitment Board (TRB) will assist the government for filling the vacancies in government schools. After a complete survey and inspection the appointments will be made for the selected 82,000 teachers said the sources of Ministry. Full-time employment will not be assured for the special part-time teachers handling the subjects of Physical Education, Drawing and Music. Funded by Sarva Siksha Abhiyan (SSA) for the placement, 16,500 teachers were appointed on the first phase as part time special teachers. Salaries were increased for those teachers along with additional preference for transfers. But there is no chance for the full-time employment for such part time special teachers said the School Education Minister.
Mr. Sengottaiyan also added the news of School Education Department signing a MoU with ACT Fibernet for providing free internet connections for school libraries. The agreement encloses the provision of internet for five years in 100 school libraries in Chennai, Thiruvallur, Kancheepuram and Coimbatore. This internet facility by ACT comes under the scheme of Company’s Corporate Social Responsibility initiative. With this internet connection students can access many videos on YouTube and other platforms to enhance the ways and styles of modern education system.
