The Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) has directed the Controller and Accountant General’s Department to not to pay the July 2024 salaries of all teaching staff of the Colleges of Education (CETAG), excluding the College Principals.
This move follows the ongoing strike by CETAG members which began in June this year.
The teachers are embarking on the industrial action to protest the government’s delay in implementing the arbitral award and negotiated service conditions.
GTEC in a letter to the Accountant General’s Department dated Monday, July 22, stated, “At the instance of the Minister of Education on the non-adherence of CETAG members to call off an illegal strike from June 2024, you are by this letter requested to stop the salaries of all teaching staff of the Colleges of Education (CETAG) except for the College Principals for July 2024.”
“By this letter, College Principals are not to validate the July 2024 salaries of all teaching staff.”
