Teachers' status
As per the government decision the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education has recently appointed as many as 1377 assistant teachers in the secondary level for the double-shift schools. Regrettably, a number of them have not joined their jobs. Perhaps they have got better jobs elsewhere. It is clear that talented and capable young people are not at all interested in this profession due to lack of both respect and good pay. That's why the teachers of government. high schools have been demanding first class status for a long time. Teaching is an honourable profession. Teachers are the torchbearers, mentors and leaders of a nation. But honestly speaking, teachers are not well-treated in our country. I would like to request our present government and the authorities concerned to address the issue.
