AIDSO slams govt.'s move to penalise teachers over SSLC results
The All India Democratic Students' Organisation (AIDSO) has criticised the State government's reported move to penalise teachers and withhold grants to aided institutions based on SSLC examination results. In a statement, the AIDSO said the government's reported order proposes 'cutting salary increments for teachers in government and aided schools if the subject-wise pass percentage falls below 60%'. Additionally, aided institutions could lose financial grants if their overall pass rate drops below 50%. Terming the move 'irresponsible', the AIDSO accused the government of shifting blame for declining academic performance on to teachers while ignoring its own 'failures' in the education sector. It blamed the government's own policies largely responsible for the dip in learning outcomes. One of them was the 'No Detention Policy'. It pointed to the critical shortage of teaching staff, noting that over 73,000 posts remain vacant in government and aided schools across the State. Many aided institutions are already struggling due to inadequate funding and lack of support, the AIDSO said in the statement. 'This punitive order is a cover-up for the government's negligence in addressing systemic issues such as timely recruitment of teachers, restoration of the pass-fail system, and increased budgetary allocation for education,' the AIDSO alleged. Calling the reported directive 'undemocratic' and 'regressive', the AIDSO demanded its immediate withdrawal. The organisation urged the government to engage with teachers, students, and education experts to implement policies aimed at improving the quality of education.
