The Bihar government has unveiled a new policy for transferring and posting government school teachers in the state, with the goal of improving educational quality. The updated policy will prioritize teachers with serious diseases and disabilities.
It will ensure that no school has more than 70 female teachers and that teachers are transferred every five years. The department will provide teachers ten alternatives for preferred posting sites. The postings will be made in the closest subdivision or district.
The new policy will benefit over 1.80 lakh teachers who passed competency tests across the state. The test is conducted for educators employed by local bodies in Bihar who want recruitment as government school teachers. The policy will not apply to teachers appointed by local municipal bodies who have not passed the competency test.
While announcing the policy, Education Minister Sunil Kumar said, “All applications for transfers will be received online only. The new transfer policy will bring uniformity to transfers and postings of teachers of government schools in the state. It will not only provide relief to teachers but will also improve the quality of education.”
“Teachers who are seriously ill, handicapped, widowed, divorced, living alone, or in a husband-wife teacher pair will get preference during transfers,” the minister added.
The policy will only be applicable to teachers selected through Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC), government teachers and those who have passed mandatory tests.
