Re: Should Child Care Leave be extended to Lady Teachers by
No system is full-proof. There are some merits and demerits. Pls see the following thread:

Keeping the above fact in mind I would like to say that the benefits of CCL for a max. period of 730 days should be extended to teachers subject to certain terms and conditions which are not stipulated for ordinary female Govt. employees.
Teachers are for the students. Educational institutions are for the students. Therefore, interests of the students should preferably be protected under any circumstances.
Since grant of CCL to too many teachers in the same time should hamper the academic interests of Girls’ and Co-Education schools, there may be some provisions in the rules to sanction CCL in favour of not more than two teachers at a time and, that too in a phased manner. A roster may be maintained for the purpose.
It should be sanctioned for a continuous spell of not less than 90 days so that part time teachers in may be appointed in leave vacancy to uphold the normal functioning of schools.
Excepting the teachers for whom sons/daughters are appearing at major exams. (M.P. & H.S., J.E.E. etc.) there should be restrictions for grant of CCL to teachers during the periods of Board Exams. (M.P. & H.S.) to avoid shortage of staff for invigilation duty etc.
