Pune: 25 MEd colleges cannot admit news students for 2012-13

PUNE: The management council of the University of Pune has approved a proposal banning admissions to the first-year postgraduate education ( MEd) programme at 25 colleges because they have not met the minimum requirement of teaching staff.

"Only five M.Ed colleges will be eligible to effect admissions this year. The management council approved this move at its meeting on Friday evening and we are in the process of communicating the decision to the concerned colleges," said UoP vice-chancellor Wasudev N Gade.

The action was taken after reviewing the availability of full-time university approved teaching staff at M.Ed colleges. "We had sought information from all M.Ed colleges regarding the status of their teaching staff," he added.

As a rule, colleges should have a full-time principal, an associate professor and at least two assistant professors. "A majority of the M.Ed colleges do not have the requisite number of teaching staff. We started with postgraduate education colleges, but our aim is to take a similar review across all colleges at the earliest," said Gade. He, however, clarified that the management council's decision is confined to putting a ban on fresh admissions at these 25 M.Ed colleges for AY 2012-13. The decision will not have bearing on the existing students at these colleges.

Also, the prospect of initiating disaffiliation process against these colleges is a long-drawn exercise involving issuance of show-cause notices, hearing process and approval of disaffiliation by statutory bodies like the UoP's faculty of education, academic council and management council, he said.

Gade said, "All the 25 M.Ed colleges had adequate opportunities to rectify their deficiency in teaching staff considering that we have been following up this issue with them one way or the other for the last one year."

In March last year, the Supreme Court had set aside the Nagpur bench of the Bombay high court's judgment of December 3, 2008, that had provided a time-bound programme for the universities to ensure that all its affiliated colleges have full-time principals and adequate teaching staff in place. The high court verdict had also provided for actions like ban on admissions to first-year courses at the defaulting college and disaffiliation process for a continuing default.

The Supreme Court ruled out the proposed actions while setting aside the high court judgment, but it maintained that the process of appointment of principals and teaching staff should go on as usual.

Gade said, "After the apex court ruling, there has been a general sense of indifference among the colleges to have university-approved teaching staff in place. The reason behind the M.Ed colleges failing to remove their deficiency could be the viability issues arising out of lesser number of students opting for postgraduate education courses."
