Quick Summary

A teacher is seeking advice after their school stopped paying them, offering only half of April's salary despite continued work. The school cited a low student count as the reason for closure. The teacher is unsure of their rights, especially given the ongoing COVID-19 situation. The advice suggests that legal action might be possible if the teacher was formally appointed and termination procedures weren't followed, but otherwise, seeking alternative employment might be the best course of action.

In this tough time of COVID -19, such problem is general.
If you are duly appointed or working for a long time continuously, due procedure to terminate has to be adopted. If so, you can file case against school.

If not so, wait till the position is improved and try to convince them to allow you to re-join.

Meanwhile try to search another job.

There is nothing improper if the management has followed the 'last come first go' principle.

No legal issue seem to be issued in absence of clear law on the matter or till there is violation of service conditions / appointment.
