Govt changes timings for double shift non-teaching staff, Principal

The state government on Thursday changed the timings for non-teaching staff and the pricipal of double shift schools with immediate effect. Now, the timings for the double shift schools would be from 9 am to 3 pm alike other staff.

However, in the letter issued today by the Education Department, nothing about the timings of principals was mentioned but verbal instructions are passed on to them to adjust according to the school requirement.

One of the principals said that the letter did not mention anything about the principal but verbally they had been told to make adjustments accordingly. “So if we leave by 3 pm, the next in command will be responsible for the rest of the day at the school,” the principal added.
