Fulfill The Administrative Requirements, 230 Teachers In Bangka Can Join The PPPK Selection

SUNGAILAT - Bangka Regency Government, Bangka Belitung Islands Province proposed as many as 234 honorary teachers to the central government to be appointed as Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK).

Bangka Regent Mulkan said that of the 234 honorary teachers proposed to be appointed by PPPK, only 230 honorary teachers met the administrative requirements to take part in the selection stage.

"There are four people who are known to do not meet the requirements for reasons of not being willing to become PPPK and sick reasons that do not allow them to participate in the selection," he said, quoted by Antara, Sunday, December 4.

According to him, the proposal of honorary teachers to become PPPK staff is an effort by the Bangka Regency Government in paying attention to the employment status and welfare of teachers.

Based on data from the Youth and Sports Education Office of Bangka Regency, a total of 4,261 teachers from the Elementary School and Junior High School levels were recorded, including honorary teachers.

Meanwhile, the number of public junior high schools in Bangka Regency reached 46 schools and SD Negeri as many as 183 school units, all spread over eight sub-districts, covering 62 villages.

The needs of teachers, especially in areas outside the urban area in Bangka Regency, such as in the Riau Silip District, are relatively lacking, and there is even a principal who is forced to help teach in the classroom.

The number of honorary teachers in Bangka Regency who are proposed to be appointed as PPPK in 2022 is more numerous than in 2021, which recorded 102 people.
