Schools invited to upgrade teaching posts
Aided primary schools are invited to apply for upgrading existing teaching posts to graduate posts in the 1996-97 school year as part of the Government's effort to improve the quality of teachers.
The Education Department today (Wednesday) issued a circular to all aided primary schools, including special schools and combined-level special schools, inviting applications for a quota to regrade eligible serving teachers in the Certificated Master/Mistress grade to the Primary School Master/Mistress grade in the coming school year.
The circular followed the one issued last week to invite applications for a quota to appoint pre-service graduates as teachers.
Senior Education Officer, Mr K M Lau, said that of the 282 graduate teaching posts provided by the Government to aided schools in the 1996-97 school year, 226 will be available for schools to regrade eligible serving teachers.
The remaining 56 posts, representing 20 per cent, have been reserved for schools to recruit pre-service graduates.
