Andhra government releases schedule for transfer of teachers, focus on transparency
VIJAYAWADA: The State government has released the transfer schedule for Headmasters, Grade-II, School Assistants, Secondary Grade Teachers, and equivalent cadre working in Government, Zilla Parishad, Mandal Parishad, Municipal, and Municipal Corporation Schools. This follows the enactment of the Andhra Pradesh State Teachers Transfers Regulation Act, 2025, and a recent interim order by the High Court. Director of School Education V Vijay Rama Raju released the schedule on Wednesday, based on GO No. 22 issued by the School Education (Services II) Department Tuesday midnight. The government has empowered itself to regulate teacher transfers to ensure the optimal deployment of staff across all school levels. As per the new rules, principals (Headmasters Grade-II) are eligible for transfer after completing five years of service at one place, and teachers after eight years. A detailed points-based system will be followed for the purpose, one point for Category-1, two for Category-2, three for Category-3, and five each for Category-4 and station preferences. Additionally, teachers will be awarded 0.5 service points for each year of completed service. The government clarified that by May 31, all vacancies, including those arising from retirement, rationalisation, mandatory transfers, long absence (over a year), and study leave, will be displayed. All Regional Joint Directors and District Education Officers have been instructed to complete the transfers and promotions strictly according to the schedule. The Additional Director (IT) has been directed to make necessary digital arrangements to ensure smooth implementation. The transfer initiative aims to rationalise teacher deployment across foundational, primary, upper primary, and high schools, thereby improving academic standards and maintaining transparency in staffing decisions.

Remedial classes for SSC-reattempting students: govt. urged to give options to teachers
Member of Legislative Council (MLC) from Progressive Democratic Front (PDF) B. Gopi Murthy said that teachers were being harassed in the name of remedial classes. In a statement, the MLC said SSC results were released on April 23, 2025 and has a pass percentage of 81.14. The remaining 18.86% students are gearing up to write the supplementary exams. He said the department had issued instructions to conduct mandatory remedial classes for these students, unfairly denying summer vacations to teachers. Pointing out that the service rules implemented for teachers include summer vacation, he appealed to Director of School Education Vijay Rama Raju to allow teachers to use their summer holidays. Leaders of Andhra Pradesh Teachers Federation (APTF) have also urged the School Education Department to make teachers' participation in conducting remedial classes optional or grant an Earned Leave (EL) for teachers taking classes in the summer vacation. The federation's State president G. Hridaya Raju and general secretary S. Chiranjeevi pointed to the instructions that the 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily classes will include mid-day-meal. They said since the Education Department had already declared summer holidays from April 24 to June 11, most teachers had already travelled to their home towns or gone on vacation with their families. They, however, said that some teachers had volunteered to take the remedial classes in the mornings. They had also distributed handbooks printed by the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT) and by forwarding through WhatsApp question and answer material. They said the officials should make attendance for teachers optional or grant Earned Leave (EL) as per the rule.
