This opportunity would provide better options for the teachers and staff who are contributing towards the development and up-gradation state education system. The state government would also open new positions for principals that would create 11,353 vacancies in schools across the state. All those candidates who are pursuing a B.Ed from a state university are now eligible for direct recruitment after qualifying for the B.Ed examination. During the meeting, an important decision on the recruitment of the B.Ed students who have passed the REET 2021 exam was also taken. Meanwhile, the B.Ed results are yet to be declared and it has been delayed due to the ongoing COVID pandemic.
