Now targetting 300 places. If one remembers, recently the Tamil Schools Teachers Union <a href=\"http:\/\/poobalan.com\/blog\/tamil-schools\/2008\/09\/29\/tamil-school-teachers-union-ask-more-places\/\">was unhappy<\/a> with the 100 places allocated. Now, 200 places is ready for the 1400 temporary teachers in Tamil schools. This was revealed by Dr S.Subramaniam.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Human Resources Minister and MIC secretary-general Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam said MIC would seek the cooperation of the Education Ministry to ensure that the 1,400 temporary teachers who are currently teaching in Tamil schools across the nation would be given the opportunity to pursue the teacher\u2019s training course during the holidays within the next four years.<\/p>\n<p>He said the Education Ministry had previously approved 100 places in the course for such teachers during the holidays, but at the request of MIC, had doubled the number of places to 200.<\/p>\n<p>He said, however, that MIC found this number to be insufficient and had urged the ministry to allocate at least 300 places each year for temporary teachers from Tamil schools.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>But, I&#8217;m peeved at the excuse given over partly-aided schools problem. For how long are they going to keep on identifying problems? Most schools have their own set of problems, so a crack team should be assigned to each of the 370 over schools. The team must be given a deadline to get the school to apply for conversion and clear all the requirements needed. I think in this way, at least few schools could have converted every year in the last 5 years. But until now, no news of even one school being converted. I think the idea of looking at the big picture is paralysing the process.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>He said MIC was also in the midst of identifying problems faced by partly-aided schools and was taking the necessary action to solve these issues so that they could be converted to fully-aided schools.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MIC helps to double places (from 100 to 200) for training for Tamil school teachers.
