Education Minister A N M Ehsanul Haque Milon informed the National Parliament that there are 60,295 vacant teacher positions across MPO-listed schools and colleges in Bangladesh. He provided the data in response to a parliamentary question on Wednesday. The minister detailed that government colleges have 656 vacant lecturer posts under the BCS (General Education) cadre and 2,410 non-cadre lecturer vacancies in newly nationalized colleges. Additionally, 1,349 principal and vice-principal posts remain vacant in MPO-listed colleges, while recruitment for 1,344 teaching positions is ongoing.
The minister said the government has taken steps to fill these vacancies quickly through transparent and merit-based recruitment via the NTRCA and BCS examinations. Applications have already been received to fill 11,151 head and assistant head teacher posts in MPO-listed institutions. He added that the process of nationalizing private colleges follows the Prime Minister’s directives and depends on financial capacity, policy, and the national budget.
Milon also stated that the government aims to gradually bring all qualified educational institutions under MPO coverage, ensuring equitable development and quality improvement in the education sector.
