50,063 teachers to be recruited through the process
16,500 new sections to be created in SUCCESS schools

HYDERABAD: Stage is being set for the notification of the much awaited DSC-2008 for recruiting 50,063 teachers.

Officials of the School Education department said it could be issued any day.

The effort, it is gathered, is to take all precautions to ensure that the process that was considerably delayed by legal hurdles would have a smooth sailing once the notification is issued.

Once the notification is issued and the written examination held by the last week of December, counselling would not take much time and new teachers should be in place by the time schools reopen after Sankranti vacation.

Of the 50,000 posts to be filled in 10 categories, about 12,000 posts would be that of School Assistants for English, maths, physical sciences, biological sciences, social studies, 7,000 language pundits posts for Hindi, Telugu, Urdu, 28,000 secondary grade teacher posts and the rest would comprise teachers for physical education, linguistic minorities schools and special schools.

Promotions

It is also said that along with this direct recruitment, about 25,000 SGTs are expected to be promoted as School Assistants.

Top priority of this recruitment would be to appoint teachers to all core subjects in 6,500 SUCCESS schools, said School Education Director P. Bhanu Murthy.

More than 16,500 new sections would be created in SUCCESS schools in addition to 65,000 sections as hundreds of sections were overflowing with students against the norm of 60 students per section, it is said.
