Take steps to stop coaching business, DSHE to officials

The Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education (DSHE) today asked all the concerned officials across the country to implement the policy, incorporated to stop teachers from doing coaching business.

“We have sent letters to all concerned officials at district and upazila levels so that they ensure monitoring against the coaching businesses,” Shawkat Hossain Biswas, additional director of the DSHE, told The Daily Star.

The education ministry announced a policy titled "Policy-2012 to stop teachers from doing coaching business in educational institutes" on June 20, 2012, Biswas said.

“Many teachers might have forgotten the policy and so we are reminding our officials to look after whether the policy is being enforced or not,” he added.
