Bill introduced to recognise teacher-training institutes
In
a major relief to students enrolled in the various courses in government-owned
universities, which were not recognised by The National Council for Teacher
Education Act, Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar has
introduced a Bill to give one-time relief measure of granting retrospective
recognition to them.
As
per Section 14 of the NCTE Act, every institution which offers teacher
education course needs to obtain recognition from the regional committee. Also,
every institute which starts any new course or training in teacher education
needs to take permission from the regional committee concerned.
But
there were various institutes funded by the Central, State government and the
Union territory administration, which failed to get recognition and permission
from the council.
The
Centre has decided to introduce the National Council for Teacher Education
(Amendment) Bill, 2017, which will grant retrospective recognition to such
institutes till the academic year 2017-18. Also, to grant retrospective
permission to new course or training in teacher education offered by the
institutions for the academic year 2017-18.
