Teacher Oppose Aptitude Test for Promotion to Head Masters (HM) in Kerala
Kerala Teacher Eligibility Test News :
Teacher’s associations have come out against the General Education Department proposal to conduct a mandatory aptitude test for promotion to the post of headmaster.
The State Council for Education Research and Training has been entrusted with preparing norms for the test.
The pro-CPM Kerala School Teachers Association general secretary, Mr M. Shajahan, told Deccan Chronicle that the move, backed by the office of education minister, Mr P.K. Abdu Rabb, was aimed at promoting Arabic, Urdu and Sanskrit teachers without B Ed degree as headmasters.
The earlier curriculum committee decision to declare a language diploma in these subjects as a B Ed-equivalent was part of this move,he alleged.
Of the nine teacher organisations, only three support the aptitude test. Organizations that support the move belong to Arabic and Urdu teachers and Muslim League, he said.
Promoting teachers without B Ed or Teacher's Training Certificate would benefit over 500 high school and 2,000 primary schoolteachers.
The office of the minister had earlier suggested promoting Arabic, Urdu and Sanskrit teachers without B Ed degree or TTC as headmasters arguing that the Right to Education (RTE) Act permitted promotion of any teacher, who passed the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET), to the post.
However, those opposed to the move point out that the RTE Act proposed TET as an eligibility test for appointment of teachers and not for promotion.
The pro-Congress Government School Teachers Union president, Mr J. Sasi, pointed out that Kerala Education Rules stipulated a degree and BEd for appointment as high school teachers and TTC for primary teachers.
Now most language teachers without BEd or TTC work as Arabic munshis in Malappuram district, according to sources.
