Ahmedabad: The state education department has issued guidelines for the transfer of assistant teachers in state govt secondary and higher secondary schools. Assistant teachers must complete two years of service before applying for district transfers online through their original appointment district office. The merit-based system allocates up to 30 points for service duration and 10 points for board exam performance. Teachers are permitted two district transfers during their service.
The regulations specify that eligible assistant teachers must submit online applications, which require certification from both the school principal and district education officer before forwarding to the commissioner's office. The transfer process is managed through dedicated online software.
The commissioner's office will publish a provisional list categorised by department and subject at the state level after receiving applications within the deadline. Following approval, the final list and transfer orders will be issued online. School principals and DEOs will be responsible for ensuring the relieving process is completed and documented online once transfer orders are issued at the camp.
