English teachers jobs | University status to two institutes
Job uncertainty for 600 teachers
Islamabad, June 02, 2008: Federal Directorate of Education (FDE) did not extend
contract of over 600 English teachers till expiry date on Saturday (May 31),
causing unrest among them. The teachers have not been informed of their status,
clearing whether they are able to continue their jobs after the expiry of their
contracts. FDE spokesperson Rafique Tahir said that contract of all
teachers would be extended soon. He said the teachers would be more necessary if
English was declared compulsory from Class 1.
Another official said the
teachers were informed of their status one month ahead of expiry of their
contracts in previous years but this year they had been left in the darkness.
He said the tense teachers feared they would be fired now because they
had not yet got letters of extension of contracts. "There are rumours that
contract teachers will be told that their services are no more required," a
teacher said, adding some teachers were overage for any government job after
serving the FDE for three year. He demanded confirmation of jobs of contract
teachers. Daily Times
