NUT kicks against ‘vacancy precondition’ for Civil Service...








原文原文 / Original Text

The Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), FCT wing, has kicked against the “vacancy precondition” for promotion of teachers in the territory’s Civil Service, describing the newly released promotion examination timetable as a threat to the career progression of teachers.

The union said the timetable released by the FCT Civil Service Commission (CSC), which indicates “No Vacancy” for education officers seeking promotion from Grade Level 14 to 15, 15 to 16 and 16 to 17, could effectively stagnate teachers at Grade Level 14.

The NUT FCT Publicity Secretary, Comrade Ibikun Adekeye, in a release on Thursday, described the development as an “assault” on teachers and a sign that the welfare of the teaching workforce was not being given adequate consideration.

Adekeye said the timetable implied that teachers could be denied career progression irrespective of their years of service, qualifications and experience in the classroom.

He said, “What the commission has presented is not promotion but stagnation. It tells FCT teachers that no matter their years of sacrifice, qualifications and service in the classrooms, a teacher may not rise beyond Level 14.

“What sin have teachers committed? The commission claims there is no vacancy at the top. Yet they expect our unions to keep quiet. This is false and wicked.”

Adekeye further argued that the policy was inconsistent with efforts to improve the quality of education, saying teachers who were denied career progression could become demoralised.

“You cannot claim to prioritise education while you deliberately frustrate the people who deliver education. A demoralised, stagnated teacher cannot give his best to the Nigerian child,” he said.
