LUCKNOW: After completing the recruitment process of over 1.25 lakh teachers in government schools under the basic education department, the UP government on Friday constituted a three-member committee to look into the recruitment process for filling up remaining vacant posts of teachers in a time-bound manner.
As per CM Yogi Adityanath’s directives, the committee will seek details of vacant posts in state-run primary and upper primary schools and will also work for creation of new posts.
The panel is headed by Revenue Board chairperson with secretary basic education and secretary basic education council as members. It has been directed to submit a detailed report on teaching vacancies soon.
In a high-level meeting with officials of the basic education department on Friday, CM enquired about the teaching and learning activities in the schools post resumption of regular classes for students of classes 1 to 5 from September 1.
Stressing on the need to tap the potential of newly inducted teachers, Yogi also told officials to maintain the ideal teacher-student ratio in schools. For this, creation of new posts is required along with appointment of teachers on vacant posts in schools, he added.
