Teachers employed under the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) are set to receive higher salaries once a new pay structure takes effect sometime in July, 2021.
This comes after the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) disclosed in a report that the last job evaluation done on the teachers was unfair as it favored school heads while leaving out the other teachers.
According to the report, the input of other teachers besides the headteachers was undervalued which resulted in poor salaries. The new pay deal aims at recognizing the efforts made by these teachers in their line of duty.
