Overview

• Saxena’s approval extends contracts for 402 qualified and eight non-qualified part-time vocational teachers through March 31, 2026.
• The Delhi government has earmarked ₹36 crore to cover increased remuneration for these contingent-paid instructors over the April 2025–March 2026 academic year.
• Separate renewals were granted for two hospitality and tourism stream teachers and nine PTVTs in four government-aided senior secondary schools.
• Part-time vocational teachers have delivered CBSE’s NSQF-aligned skill-based education to Classes 9–12 since the framework’s introduction.
• Steady attrition from retirements and a halt on new hires has made retaining existing PTVTs critical to prevent staffing shortages.
