ORDER:-
- Government of India have enacted the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009 and Government of Andhra Pradesh have issued Rules in 2010. As per Section 19 read with the Schedule of the Act, Government have set the norms of number of teachers to be positioned from Class I to Class VIII based on the student strength.
- 2. Government vide G.Os 2nd and 3rd read above have issued norms for rationalization of schools, posts and staff under various managements. During the year, 2016, a Committee was constituted to study and revision of rules issued in G.Os at 2nd and 3rd read above. Based on the report, Government have issued detailed guidelines vide reference 4th read above.
- 3. The D.S.E., A.P., has brought to the notice of Government that the norms issued for positioning of teachers vide G.O. 4th read above were found to be in violation of RTE norms. He further informed that in the State, the schools are functioning as Primary ( Class I to V) , Upper Primary ( Class I to VII) and High schools ( Class VI to X) but not as Elementary ( I to VIII ) and Secondary Schools ( Class IX to XII). The Government have framed certain norms for Primary, Upper Primary and High Schools based on the recommendation made by the Committee and that there is inconsistency between the norms of RTE and the norms framed by Government vide GO 4th read above.
- 4. He further informed that during the year 2019-2020, the enrollment in the Government schools increased due to implementation of Ammavodi program and further because of the thrust given by the Government for improvement of the infrastructure facilities in the Government Schools by implementation of Nadu-Nedu Program, the enrollment is further going to increase in 2020-21.
- 5. Due to the norms framed vide G.O. 4th read above, a number of schools have become single teacher schools, which is against the norms set in by the Right to Education Act 2009. Further a number of schools were closed during the year 2017 on the ground of uneconomic strength. But the Right to Education Act has no where mentioned the minimum economic strength for a school. As per the norms of the RTE, every school that has a strength up to 60 children shall have two teachers.
- 6. The D.S.E., has therefore, requested the Government to issue orders for setting up of new norms for re-apportionment of teachers in super-session of the orders issued by the Govt. vide G.Os 4th to 6th read above and recommended two sets of norms to be followed for schools up to Upper Primary level and for High Schools respectively.
- 7. Government after examining the matter, above and in super-session of the earlier orders issued by the Government vide G.Os 4th to 6th read above, hereby issues the guidelines for re-apportionment of teaching staff among various managements viz., Government, Zilla Parishad and Mandal Praja Parishad Schools as appended to this order. The re-apportionment of the Posts / Teachers of Government/ Zilla Parishad and Mandal Parishad Schools shall be taken up by the Director School Education duly fixing a suitable cut-off date.
