By creating new posts, massive reforms are being carried out in education. With 15 posts in second grade and 429 in third, a total of 444 posts will be created. In addition, from the post of lecturer to professor, another 12,500 posts will be created. In total, there will be 12,944 new posts.
The proposal to create posts has already been sent to the ministry of public administration. Currently, the DG post of secondary and higher secondary education is first grade.
The number of first-grade posts will remain unchanged. Previously, promotion to second grade was done through selection grade.
But that chance does not exist as there isn’t any selection grade in the 2015 national salary structure. Education cadre students are stuck in the fourth grade. To create grade steps, the secondary and higher secondary education board will send proposals to the ministry of public administration.
Additional secretary of secondary and higher secondary division, Dr Mollah Jalil, told Bangla Tribune, “there isn’t any post above fourth grade in education; previously, promotion to second grade was possible through selection grade.”
The new proposals will ask for 15 posts in second and 429 for third.
We shall also make proposals for 12,500 posts including that of professor, assistant professor and lecturer.
Once the post graduation is done, corruption and lobbying will fall and members of the education cadre will be honoured.
Several teachers have said, “For a long time, the education cadre has been facing prejudice and officials of this section hardly get any chance for promotion.”
Once this disparity is removed, there will be a positive impact on education, they feel.
