Creation of Senior Teacher posts – a laudable proposal
A national English daily recently reported the government's decision to facilitate promotion of government school teachers by creating more Senior Teacher posts in government secondary schools. At present there are three tiers of teaching posts - Assistant Teacher, Assistant Head Master and Head Master. The creation of the Senior Teacher post will allow recruitment of new teachers in over two thousand vacant posts in government secondary schools. It will also allow the promotion of Assistant Head Master and Head Master post vacancies.
We thank the government and the concerned officials for making such a progressive proposal. I would further like to suggest that the concerned authorities to re-name the post of Assistant Teacher to Teacher, which will enable the four tiers of teaching posts more clearly as follows - Teacher, Senior Teacher, Assistant Head Master and Head Master.
