How much 10 months B. Ed course for in-service teachers is fruitful?

Asif Hamid Khan

I am a teacher I don’t want B.Ed certificate only I want full knowledge of B.Ed through this course so no one blames me in future.

As we all know that teacher is builder of nation & nowadays education department is enrolling these untrained builders for B.Ed & D.Ed courses for getting trained. Government set a deadline for these teachers to complete their degrees and diplomas before April 2019 or face Termination.

The government order has raised several questions like if the B. Ed course is of 24 months. How can be it completed in 10 months? What kind of special training they get through IGNOU as they have to attend school regularly.

In part time they have to do work as BLOs, Adhaar enumerators, with different kinds of surveys and censuses. They have to teach remedial classes during holidays to potential learners. Can they manage everything like machines as if they don’t haven emotions like other human beings.

Earlier, the education department had announced that they will bear all the expenses of these courses. But now the same department has asked them to submit first installment of fee for B. Ed which is 12500 & for D. Ed it’s 5000 through zonal education offices.

They are diligent so they work without salary for 3-4 months, leaving their families suffering and vulnerable and now this extra burden of paying fee for the courses govt think is necessary for them.

Teachers especially SSA work hard to uplift the education sector in J&K. Thousands of qualified persons take up the job under SSA scheme on RET pattern. They work for 5 years on monthly remuneration of rupees 1500 & are regularized after five years as per state government rules. One of the orders of Education department reads that after confirmations RET teacher is as good as general line teacher. Nowadays state government said they are their own creation. Is it possible?

Our request to state government and Director education would be to kindly help these teachers and train them according to rules of education department of J&K.

Don’t train teachers artificially but practically? We want quality education not the superficial makeup to help our kids and society to excel in the field of education.
