Laxity will not be tolerated: education of teachers and staff





Patna: The state education department will no longer tolerate any laxity in inspection of schools and strict action will be taken against any official or staff found responsible, the department’s Additional Chief Secretary (ACS) S. Siddharth said on Tuesday.
In a letter to all district education officers (DEOs), Siddharth highlighted the findings of recent monthly inspections of rural schools conducted on behalf of the department. While the inspections revealed improvements in many schools due to teacher dedication, it also revealed a lack of academic focus in other schools due to teacher neglect. “The inspection reports revealed some startling facts regarding false attendance, absenteeism among teachers, inflated student numbers and irregular classes,” he said.
The reports showed that some principals and teachers reported attendance of more than 50% of students, while the actual number was much lower. Furthermore, the number of students officially enrolled in schools exceeded actual attendance, indicating that many students were instead attending private schools or coaching institutions. “This clearly indicated that a large number of students were enrolled in private schools or attended some coaching institutions,” Siddharth added.
The ACS also pointed out that some teachers did not attend schools after recording their attendance, causing them to neglect their duties. “Despite being posted in schools near their homes, they continue to engage in work other than teaching. This indicated that some teachers were cheating on their institutions and duties,” Siddharth said.
He asked all DEOs to ensure regular and thorough inspections of schools in their jurisdiction to create a better academic environment. “If negligence is found, the officials involved, including DEOs, will be punished accordingly,” he said, adding that such officials could face departmental proceedings, suspension or dismissal.
Meanwhile, state primary education director Pankaj Kumar wrote separate letters to all DEOs, urging them to focus on improving reading and math skills for students of classes I to VIII. “A recent assessment of 25,000 students in classes III, V and VIII across 1,000 schools found that their performance was not up to par in reading fluency and basic arithmetic. These children need special attention in the future,” Kumar said.
