Parliament has passed the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (Amendment) Bill, 2017 with Rajya Sabha approving it Tuesday. Lok Sabha had passed it earlier.

The bill provides for training of eleven lakh untrained teachers working in government and private schools in next two years through off-line and on-line modes.

The Minister said training will help improve the standards of teachers and education and also ensures job security of the teachers. The Minister said the untrained teachers will start the training programme from 2nd October this year and teachers will have to get themselves registered between 15thAugust and 15th September 2017.


The RTE Act, 2009 envisages free and compulsory elementary education to every child in the age group of 6-14 years. The amendments to RTE Act, 2009 will enable the in-service untrained elementary teachers to complete their training and ensure that all teachers at the elementary level have certain minimum standard of qualifications in order to maintain the standard of teaching quality.
