NEW DELHI: A directorate of education (DoE) order for the discontinuation of service of guest teachers during summer vacations has prompted several of them to argue that the annual order leaves many of them unemployed for two months.
In the May 11 order, DoE said the guest teachers’ service would be discontinued during the summer vacation till June 30, but “heads of schools are authorised to engage guest teachers as per administrative requirement for school-related work — admissions, examinations, etc”. It added that the heads of government schools might also engage them for summer camps under Mission Buniyaad.
