Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Concept
Staffing norms specify both the size and the composition of the teaching faculty for a standard intake. In the notation “1 + n”, “1” denotes the Principal or Head and “n” denotes the number of lecturers.
Application
For a B.Ed. intake of 100 students or fewer, the applicable NCTE norm prescribed one Principal or Head and at least seven lecturers. This composition is written as 1 + 7, giving eight teaching-faculty members in all.
Contrast
1 + 9 denotes one Principal or Head and nine lecturers, a total of ten.
1 + 10 denotes one Principal or Head and ten lecturers, a total of eleven.
1 + 5 denotes one Principal or Head and five lecturers, a total of six.
Cross-check
The official NCTE wording for this intake specifies a Principal or Head plus at least seven lecturers; therefore, the required composition is 1 + 7.
