CORPORATION SCHOOL NEEDS MORE TEACHERS

Posted on: 30/Jun/2010 12:45:00 AM

The Chennai Higher Secondary School, Kalyanapuram, Vysarpadi seems like not given proper attention by the Municipal administration. The school was upgraded last year has 23 students in its first batch of 12th standard. The teaching staff strength is so low that it does not have proper teaching staff for 11th and 12th standard classes. The school does not have full time Headmaster and senior teacher is officiating as Headmaster. Even though its one month passed since the school reopened for next academic period, teachers for 11th and 12th standard classes have not been appointed.

It looks like a system failure somewhere as The Mayor has been working hard to create level playing field for the Corporation Schools to compete with the private schools. Authorities may please take due corrective measures before it’s late for the students.

According to N.Thangaraj, coordinator, Slum Children Sports Talent Education Development Society (SCSTEDS), who has been working in the area and with the school, the school is a picture of complete neglect.
