In keeping with a promise to Literacy Teachers across the country, the Education Ministry has honoured an outstanding payment obligation.The teachers, who are tasked with delivering remedial classes to pupils who are dubbed “slow learners”, were denied their stipends for their services since the beginning of this year.
