Teachers in Berbice last week took action by absenting themselves from school to voice their frustration at the lack of talks with the government as it relates to the proposal for an increase in salary made by the GTU three years ago.
Stabroek News was told that yesterday some teachers in Georgetown took the same actions, while educators around the country are expected to join in the coming weeks.
Last week Wednesday, teachers from Canje and New Amsterdam stayed away and provided an excuse, while on Thursday teachers from the Corentyne area stayed away from school providing an excuse for what is being deemed by some as “a day of rejuvenation.”
