In early this week, the teachers’ employer indicated that teachers serving under grades B5, C1, C2, C3 and D5 will not get salary increment owing to the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) 2017 -2021 that did not capture them.

Part of the seen document read “Grades B5, C1, C2, C3, and D5 have reached the maximum salary points provided for in the banding by the completion of the cycle for CBA 2017 – 2021.”
The other better part of the document however indicated that teachers in grades C4, C5, D1, D2, D3 and D4 who are yet to attain the maximum salary points as provided for in the salary banding will get their salary increment.
