 All Granted Secondary-U. Secondary school teachers-staff will get permanent protection as spare, 70 thousand teachers will benefit

Granted school teachers-employees will no longer have to lose their jobs due to closure of class-schools as per the decision of the state government.

The state government has taken one more important decision today in the interest of teachers. The Gujarat government has decided for the teachers of subsidized secondary and higher secondary schools. From now on, all teachers and staff will be given permanent protection as redundant. As a result, the new appointee will not have to lose his job due to the closure of the class-school. The decision will benefit an estimated 70,000 state-funded secondary and higher secondary school teachers and staff.

Appointment will not lose job: Education Minister

Education Minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama said that the state government has taken an important decision to provide permanent protection to all teachers and staff of state-funded secondary and higher secondary schools as redundant. From now on, any newly appointed subsidized secondary or higher secondary school teacher-employee will not face the question of losing a job due to class-school closure.

Government schools having the same recruitment process as the decision

Giving more details in this regard, the Education Minister said that recruitment of teachers in non-government aided secondary and higher secondary schools has been done on a centralized basis since 2011. The decision has been taken to have the same recruitment process, TAT examination, qualification, salary scale as well as performance of teachers in government secondary and higher secondary schools and subsidized secondary and higher secondary schools. As teachers appointed in subsidized secondary and higher secondary schools lose their jobs due to lack of surplus protection, such teachers are constantly working under the guise of insecurity, which may have a direct impact on the quality of teaching work. This decision will result in better quality and performance of education.

The Education Minister added that as a result of this decision, if a vacant teacher is appointed instead of re-appointing to fill the vacancy, the long process of filling the vacancy will be avoided and the trained experienced teacher will be given the job and the schools will get experienced teachers quickly.
