GSEB Class 10 Mass Promotion: Classes can be run into different shifts, know here, why?

Due to the GSEB Class 10 Mass Promotion, schools may run into shortage of classrooms and teachers. There are around 8.57 Lakh of students this year for the class 11th. And there is a need for proper space in the classrooms and teachers to regulate the study. The state government is estimating at that place a shortage of 3,000 schools and 6,000 teachers are required to facilitate the regular study of class 11th students. 

On the basis of the pass percentage of board exams conducted into the past two years, it would add almost 3-3.5 lakh of students for the new academic year 2021. 

However the Gujarat state government has dismissed the chance of building the new classrooms and said to adjust these students by running the schools into two different shifts, when these students will get back for the offline classes.

According to the sources of the educational department, the government is planning to hire the temporary teachers for the schools instead of recruiting new permanent teachers. Because the educational department already has a policy for visiting teachers. 

a senior education official said, “Since the department already has a policy for visiting teachers in place, this will be used for additional students going to Class 11 following mass promotion,” 

Education Minister Bhupendra-sinh Chudasama told The Indian Express that they have prepared an estimate and the possibility to run the classes in shifts to adjust the additional students. However the actual situation would be only known when the schools will reopen physically.

Such a situation has arisen for the first time in Gujarat where GSHSEB will not be conducting Class 10 exams and all students are being mass promoted. Even during the time of Nav Nirman Andolan of 1974, Mandal Commission protests of 1990, Bhuj earthquake of 2001, 2002 Godhra riots, class 10 exams were conducted, in a case or two conducted late but there was no mass promotion, GSHSEB officials said.

Based on the data collected by the education department from all districts, the official said, “Since 60 students in one class is the upper limit and at present in majority of the schools we have 40 students, so some additional numbers would be adjusted. Also, after the implementation of Right to Education (RTE) Act in Gujarat in 2011-12, Class 8 that was so far in the secondary school was brought down to primary schools. Due to this, we have spare classrooms available in government and grant-in-aid secondary and higher secondary schools.”
