YUPIA, Jun 9: Papum Pare Deputy Commissioner Cheechung Chukhu chaired a coordination meeting of all the Principals, headmasters, field functionaries (BEO/BRCC/CRCC) and the Education Department officials at Yupia on Friday to examine the poor performance in the recently concluded CBSE examinations and to draw a tangible solution for the future.
Following discussions, the Head of Schools termed "lack of discipline and sincerity amongst the students, poor foundational education of a child at primary and elementary level, lack of motivation from parents to their wards, shortage of subject teachers, inaction by the higher authority in checking non-performing teachers despite submission of written complaint by the HoS, non substitution of teachers against the teachers on earned leave and maternity leave, transfer and posting of teachers at mid session as the main reasons for the poor performance of the students."
The Head of Schools also emphasized on the need to mandatorily implement and appoint Vocational subject teachers of Tour and Travel (TT) and Information and communication technology (IT) to minimize fail percentage, strictly regulate the passing pattern of Arunachal Pradesh State Board (APSB) Examination and construct infrastructural gaps like hostels and boundary walls.
Addressing the educators, the DC said that “teachers are given a high pedestal in society and therefore their responsibility towards creating a pool of educated and responsible citizens increases manifolds.”
The DC called for discipline among teachers and conducting regular parent-teacher meetings.
Addressing the meeting, DDSE T.T.Tara said "shifting the blame to the parents and students alone for the dismal results is uncalled for. Teachers are also part of the failure as they do not work up to the expectations and are equally responsible for the poor performance of students."
“Punctuality, dedication and sincerity of teachers are vital for improving the quality of child and thus every teacher must introspect and work to inculcate these habits.” he added.
The DDSE also called upon all the field functionaries (BEO/BRCC/CRCCs) of the districts to remain proactive in mitigating the degrading quality of education in their respective jurisdictions.
