4. Things rapidly changed once the liberation of Goa took place. Regard being had to the Directive Principles as enshrined in the Constitution of India, a number of schools were established by the Government as also by private Managements. Colleges were also started with affiliation to the University of Bombay. Diocesan Society started Pre-primary and Primary schools.
With a view to encourage and develop school and College education and to regulate them in exercise of powers conferred by Clause (2) of Goa, Daman and Diu (Administration) Removal of Difficulties Order, 1962, Rules were enacted known as the Grant-in-aid Code for Secondary schools, Colleges and other educational institutions, except the Primary schools in the then Union Territory of Goa, Daman and Diu. The Department of Education had to grant recognition to schools as also required to permit starting of new schools. Various regulatory provisions were made in the Code. With a view to ameliorate service conditions of the teachers, for the first time, security for jobs was provided against dismissal, retrenchment and in matters of payment of salaries to the teachers. With a view to lighten the financial burden upon the privately managed schools, a new pattern of financial assistance was introduced. Schools were permitted to charge reasonable fees with ceiling from the students and the Government reimbursed the schools to the extent of 66.66% of the expenditure. This pattern continued upto 31st March, 1972. From 1st of April, 1972, the financial pattern was modified and Government bore 100% salaries of the teachers with Managements' contribution of Provident Fund. Collection of fees from students of Secondary schools was stopped and by way of maintenance grant, the non-Government schools were paid 10% of the total salaries and Rs. 10/- per child per annum by way of maintenance grant. This pattern introduced a uniform scales of pay to graduate and non-graduate teachers with or without training qualifications on par with Government scales.
