Rajneesh
Can a Cbse school terminate to the teacher who are teaching more than one year without notice period suddenly.
ieducare
Termination of any staff should go with appointment policy, moreover sudden termination can happen only incase of serious offence, but that too insight of the guidelines mentioned in the institution’s HR policy
Educare India Advisory
Dear Rajneesh….
Any act of appointment and termination should go as per the terms and conditions of the appointment signed by the teacher. It has nothing to do with the duration of working. If the the appointment terms have a specific mention of notice period from either side, then it must be honoured and executed.
Educare India Advisory
Any termination for that matter has to comply the terms and condition of letter of appointment. The notice period could be one month or 3 month also.
Imthiyas
Cbsc school can hold teachers original degree certificate?
Educare India Advisory
Dear Imthiyas,
Looking at the high attrition rate of teachers in the industry, various schools have adopted lots of backup plans to counter this. Holding back original degree certificate (or) Security deposit is one of them. There is not such law which speaks on this in particular.
PAUL PAPPAIAH
In the interview and appointment order, I insisted the Correspondent not to give me any teaching
work for me as I was appointed for Coordinator. Now they force me to take classes for 11 & 12 th Maths.
Need your opinion.
Educare India Advisory
Dear Paul
If you have been appointed as academic coordinator, then taking classes is important. It may not be the same as any regular full time teacher, who is not a coordinator. Infact CBSE suggests the Principals also to take minimum 02 periods per day.
Manish Sharma
Can CBSE affiliated school appoint teachers for first year on temporary basis and then two years on probation. Before confirmation is due after two years can they terminate teachers.
Sukhvir Dhillon
Dear Mr Manish,
Normally the appointments are made with a provision of first two years probation. If the staff is performing satisfactorily you may clear the probation period and regularise the teacher. if you are not satisfied , may extend the probation. the services of any employee on probation can be terminated without giving any reason in the termination letter.
Soni Sharma

ATIYA
Hi,
I want to know that how many classes a teacher is supposed to take in a day/wéek according to cbse guidelines
Educare India Advisory
Dear Atiya
There is no specific guidelines for number of periods, but the standard teacher section ratio given by cbse is 1.5 teachers per section. It indicates that on average, maximum of 5.5 periods per day out of the scheduled 8 periods.
if there are 8 periods in a day
for 02 section number of teachers are going to be minimum 03.
for 02 sections, total number of periods would be 16 to be divided amongst 03 teachers
16/3 = 5.5 approx

You may calculate the expected load with this process.

Dear sir/madam,
My school has the class from 1 to 7 with two divisions each(total 14 sections)Pls let me know no of PRT ,TGT and PGT required for CBSE affilliation.
Educare India Advisory
Dear Shyam K
As per cbse norms the teacher section ratio should be minimum 1.5:1 (i.e. 1.5 teachers per section). Since you have 14 sections all together, then you would be requiring minimum 21 teachers, out of which (minimum 06 TGT’s and rest PRT’s). You may have more number of TGT’s and can reduce the number of PRT’s accordingly. This count is in addition to the P.E, Librarian, Counselor, Special Educator and Principal of the school.

Sir/madam
Why not there is PET, Principal eligibility test exam for private schools ?.
For teachers these people are demanding different qualifications though teachers are having experience and qualifications for cbse schools.
if principals and management are not abled then ,total labourers of teachers get spoilled.
Is there any rule to control such Principal and management.
Educare India Advisory
Dear Mr. Prasad,
Your concern is really thought provoking one.. But to be the Principal, one is expected to fulfil the minimum eligibility criteria as per the norms of the board. This is decided by the Board (CBSE OR ICSE). Incase if any such criteria is to be added, this would be the prorogative of the respective board.
