The teachers of Govt. High Schools have been demanding first class status for a long time. In the past, no govt, took any initiative in this regard. The present govt, has decided to give second-class status to the teachers. I think it won't solve the problem at all. Attracting and keeping talented and capable young people in the teaching profession is only possible when they are provided with attractive remuneration and status. To produce a competent generation by imparting quality education, I would like to make some points.

First, the government should give first class status to the teachers, so that they can get complete job satisfaction having teaching as the most dignified profession in the country. Secondly, a separate pay scale should be introduced for the teachers to help them get rid of their financial woes. If the teachers are provided with attractive salaries, they will be more interested in class teaching rather than private coaching. And last but not the least, a separate directorate for secondary education should be established to bring dynamism in official activities.

To sum up, it may be mentioned here that teachers are the architects of an educated nation. They should be well treated.
