FDE decides to regularise contract teachers
Islamabad: The Federal Directorate of Education (FDE) has decided
to regularize the services of contract teachers, who won their cases in
Islamabad High Court (IHC) after approval from the prime minister.
"The
directorate is sincere in regularizing the services of teachers in the light of
the IHC's decision and has sent a summary to the prime minister for approval to
start the process, soon," sources said.
They said the FDE had no plans to
challenge the court's ruling at any forum and the summary recommended all
teachers who won their case in the court.
The sources said there was a
shortage of teachers in the educational institutions of the capital and the FED
was taking steps to induct about 496 teachers next month as part of a strategy
to overcome the shortfall.
Concrete steps were being taken to enroll
maximum out-of-school children and efforts were underway to make the capital's
colleges and schools a role model for the rest of the country's institutions,
they said, adding that within next two years, the ministry and its partners
would be able to achieve 100 per cent literacy rate in Islamabad Capital
Territory.
The sources dispelled the impression that the FDE might start
phasing out evening shift in the capital's educational institutions in due
course of time, saying the system would stay. App
