Teaching aspirants protest

The Una district’s Unemployed JBT and DLEd Association on Thursday protested the notification by the National Council for Education and Training to allow BEd teachers to compete for jobs through the Junior Basic Teachers (JBT) Commission. The association leaders said there was a huge difference in JBT and BEd training curriculum and even the minimum qualification for both was different. As such, they said the BEd trained teachers should have an upper hand in the tests for jobs conducted by Junior Basic Teachers Commission, as compared to JBTs.
