๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ซ, ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐, ๐๐๐๐: Executive Member, i/c Education, Chakma Autonomous District Council (CADC), Dg. Doymoy Daveng Chakma has called upon the teaching community to take pride in their profession and recognise their role as major contributors to the development of society, while stressing the need for reforms to strengthen the education system in CADC.
Addressing the inaugural session of a two-day Teachersโ Seminar on Educational Reforms in CADC at the Art & Culture Hall, Kamalanagar, Dg. Doymoy Daveng Chakma, who was the Chief Guest, said that every teacher has the potential to become a quality teacher and make a meaningful contribution to society. He emphasised that teachers should measure their success not merely by their professional position, but also by the positive impact their students make in society.
โIf a student becomes a doctor, scientist, politician or community leader because of your contribution, then youโll feel successful,โ he remarked.
The Executive Member expressed concern over the need to restore the dignity of the teaching profession in CADC and urged teachers to take greater pride in their profession while recognising themselves as important contributors to society.
He said that the seminar was a step in the right direction towards bringing about reforms in the education sector. At the same time, he stressed that the government had a responsibility to ensure the welfare of the teaching community and create a conducive environment for effective teaching and learning.
He also announced that he intended to propose the โCADC Transfers & Posting of Elementary Teachersโ Rulesโ before the Executive Committee to regulate the posting and transfer of teachers and ensure a fair and systematic approach. He observed that the preference for postings in town areas had resulted in an excess of teachers in some town schools while leaving shortages in other areas, underscoring the need for a balanced approach to teacher postings.
Dg. Doymoy Daveng Chakma further informed that two education infrastructure projects had been submitted and were under process for inclusion in the Stateโs priority list. If implemented, he said, the projects would enable the construction of 20โ25 new school buildings in CADC.
Urging teachers to take greater responsibility for the educational development of their community, he called upon them to teach with a sense of purpose and commitment. He said that the children being educated today have the potential to make positive contributions to the community in the future.
Other speakers, including Dangu. Molin Kumar Chakma, Adviser to CEM and Guest of Honour, also urged the teaching community to discharge their duties with dedication and commitment.
The two-day seminar, organised by the Middle School Education Department, CADC, is themed โStrengthening Teaching Competencies, Educational Leadership and Studentsโ Learning Achievementโ and covers areas including student attendance, retention and dropout prevention; salient features of the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020; the role of teachers; enhancement of teaching quality; digital and ICT-enabled education; mentorship; and values and personality development.
