Sindh Education Department Issues Strict Deadline for Teacher Recruitment – June 15 Final Cutoff:

The Directorate General of HR & Training, School Education & Literacy Department, Government of Sindh, has issued a strict directive to all District Education Officers (DEOs) and Director School Education offices to complete the recruitment process of Primary School Teachers (PSTs) and Junior Elementary School Teachers (JESTs) by June 15, 2025.

Additionally, several districts have not submitted the joining database of newly recruited teachers, violating department policies.

The Secretary of SE&LD has expressed serious displeasure and warned of disciplinary action against negligent officers under E&D Rules. This notification serves as a final warning to expedite the process and submit all required documentation without further delay. Please find notification:

                        You are well aware that, the waiting period for recruitment of PSTs and JESTS through Sukkur IBA 2021, is going to be ended on 30th June 2025, but regretfully it has been noticed with great concern that most of the districts in spite of having available vacant seats in their concerned talukas/districts, not conducting the DSCs, making delay tactics, and creating unrest among the waiting candidates which creates an awkward situation for the department, which ultimately leads to face litigation,

                        Besides, the DSES/DEOS were made bound to submit the joining database of newly joined PSTs and JESTS of their respective districts within one month of their joining, but it is regretfully informed that, most of the districts have given it a deaf ear and failed to submit the same in due course of time.

                        Worthy Secretary SE&LD has shown his grave displeasure and cognizance over this inordinate delay and non-compliance of the orders, to accelerate the process of recruitment as well as to submit the joining database. It shows your negligence and part of misconduct. Hence he has directed to issue serious instructions with warning to conduct the DSCs where the seats are lying vacant, and wrap up the recruitment process till 15^th June 2025, as well as to submit the joining database of already joined candidates without any further delay.

                        You are therefore once again advised to comply the directions of worthy Secretary SE&LD and complete the DSCs, and submit the joining database along with requisite documents, already shared vide letter No.SO(GA)/SELD/Recruitment Policy 2021 dated: 07-7-2022 (copy attached), after completion of all the official requirements/formalities, failing which the disciplinary action will be initiated against the delinquent officer (s) as per E& D rules, without any notice.
