Teachers for splitting secondary schools

Staff Reporter


“Academic efficiency will improve to a great extent”


PUDUKOTTAI: The district branch of Tamil Nadu High and Higher Secondary Graduate Teachers’ Association has urged the State Government to bifurcate higher secondary schools into independent units of high and higher secondary sections under separate headmasters.

A resolution, adopted to this effect at its meeting held here recently, said that academic efficiency would improve to a great extent if this was done.

The meeting, through a resolution, also urged the Education Department not to promote other cadres of teachers to senior posts hitherto allotted to graduate teachers. The graduate teachers only were hitherto promoted and posted as Block Resource Teacher Educator (BRTE). Of late, the post-graduate teachers were also being given this post, depriving the promotional avenues of the graduate teachers, the resolution said, pleading for dispensing with the practice.

Association district president D. Ramamoorthy and district secretary G. Jayabalan said that the daily allowance for teachers appointed as members of the flying squad should be revised to Rs.100 from Rs.60.

Graduate teachers and senior graduate teachers should be appointed as Departmental Officers and Chief Superintendents respectively for the public examinations, they said.
