Mobile phone charges reimbursement available for teachers
Teachers who use their personal mobile phones in excursions, picnic, hiking and other outdoor students activities may claim reimbursement of expenses from September 2, a spokesman for the Education Department said today (Thursday).
However, repayment would only be considered when the activities took place where other kinds of communication are not readily available and there were genuine needs for making the calls, he said, adding that it would be limited to one mobile phone per location.
"The Education Department has considered thoroughly the feasibility of providing mobile phone to teachers for use in outdoor activities.
"It is considered not cost-effective to make mobile phone as a standard equipment in schools," the spokesman said.
Enquiries on the procedure of reimbursement should be directed to respective District Education Officer/Senior Inspector (Special Schools Administration).
