Federal Directorate of Education is going to appoint 500 male and female teachers according to the Prime Minister’s Education Reforms Programme against 1400 vacant positions in federal educational institutions, informed sources in the Capital Administration and Development Division (CADD) said on Tuesday.

Sources said that to fulfill the 1,400 vacant posts in the federal educational institutions, 500 teachers would be recruited initially on priority basis.

The prime minister directed the minister of state for CADD last week to recruit teachers on merit and to make no compromise on it.

For recruitment of teachers from BPS 14 to 17, advertisements would be published in the newspapers in the next few days.

Meanwhile it has also been decided to conduct tests and interviews to regularise the daily wages teachers.
