The
Madras High Court Bench here has reiterated its suggestion to
government aided as well as unaided minority schools to take into
consideration the interest and welfare of students studying in those
institutions and conduct refresher courses as well as interactive
sessions for their teachers during annual vacations, since the court had
in August held that it was not mandatory for them to clear the Teachers
Eligibility Test (TET).
Dismissing
a batch of writ appeals preferred by the Director of School Education
(DSE) in 2014, Justices M. Sathyanarayanan and J. Nisha Banu pointed out
that another Division Bench in the Principal Seat of the High Court in
Chennai had held that teachers of minority institutions need not clear
the TET, since the Supreme Court on May 6, 2014 ordered that the Right
of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act would not be
applicable to those institutions.
The
Division Bench of Justices Huluvadi G. Ramesh and M.V. Muralidaran had
also said: “However, keeping in mind the larger interest in which the
Government has issued G.O.s (in 2011 making TET compulsory for teachers
of all schools), this court feels that the minority institutions may
consider conducting refresher courses and also some interactive sessions
to all the teachers during annual vacation in order to ensure and
improve the quality of teachers.”
Since
the Division Bench itself had made such a suggestion, the Bench led by
Mr. Justice Sathyanarayanan said that such refresher courses could be
conducted for teachers either during annual vacation or other holidays
in the interest of the students pursuing education in the schools. It
pointed out that the DSE had preferred the appeals two years before
challenging interim orders passed by a single judge of the High Court in
favour of teachers appointed in Baren Bruck Higher Secondary School,
St. John’s Higher Secondary School, Walker Higher Secondary School,
Schaffter Higher Secondary School, C.C.M. Higher Secondary School and
Mary Sargent Higher Secondary School in Tirunelveli district.
After
the filing of the present appeals, much water had flown with the
Supreme Court insulating minority institutions from the purview of the
RTE Act and a Division Bench of the High Court in August this year
categorically holding that teachers of those institutions need not clear
the TET.
Hence, the appeals pending since 2014 were dismissed in view of the decision rendered on the issue by the other Division Bench.
