The Institutional (Private) School Teachers' Union has demanded that provisions regarding the appointment, filling of posts, wages and service conditions of teachers and staff should be made in accordance with the law.
Expressing displeasure with the provisions of the School Education Bill, the union issued a statement on Wednesday and said that provision should be made in the education regulation itself. The bill mentions that the service facilities of teachers and staff of private schools will be as provided in the local law. Union President Hom Kumar Thapa, General Secretary Bhupal Upreti have demanded that the service conditions should be as per national standards. As the local level makes different laws, they demand that it should be as prescribed in the education regulations.
The union has also demanded to maintain the provision of compulsorily joining the social security fund for teachers and employees. The union has also alleged that under the pressure of the private school management, the provision was tried to be removed. "Teachers and staff working in private investment schools should be affiliated to the social security fund," said the bill submitted to the House of Representatives.
Private school owners Pabson, Nbabson, Hisan and others have been protesting with the demand to remove this system. The private school teachers' union has alleged that the provision was sought to be removed to announce the teachers and staff.
'Now the administrators of private schools are saying that this provision should be removed. Some people are opposing the organization of teachers and employees in the Social Security Fund. "The school administrators' refusal to pay the salary set by the government of Nepal, not to pay it on time and not agreeing to contribute to the social security fund is continuous exploitation of the teachers and employees," said the statement. "The union strongly condemns such activities and warns against such actions and requests the law makers and bodies not to pay attention to such matters and keep that provision as it is." The union argues that although the provision of giving scholarships to 10 to 15 percent students is mandatory, provision of other facilities in the name of full scholarships should not be made mandatory.
'Administrators should not deviate from the prescribed scholarships given to students. But it is not right to forcefully try to give the materials that you have not produced in the name of a full scholarship to the scholarship," said the statement.
It is said in the bill that the students who get the full scholarship should be provided with clothes, educational materials, and transportation facilities.
The union suggests that the return on investment should be integrated in the system of private schools gradually becoming non-profit. The union said in a statement, "Investors are looking for profit. After discussing with the relevant agencies, the government should come to a decision on how much the return on investment will be and how to manage it.
