The upcoming NCOPST training on SSNIT, NTC Et al. for private schools, teachers is long overdue looking at the challenges that confront private schools. The lack of information and the struggles of COVID-19 make this training even more important.
According to NCOPST, the private school teachers, edupreneurs and school administrators need up-to-date education from and on NTC, NaSIA, Labour Commission Department, Fair Wage Salary Commission, SSNIT company, Tier 2 companies, Ministry of Gender, Children and social protection and RGD to ensure schools meet all basic statutory regulations.

NCOPST is inviting Labour Commission Department, National Schools Inspectorate Authority, SSNIT company, Fair Wage Salary Commission, Tier 2 companies, and Registrar General’s Department to educate private school teachers about their duties and how they affect our work as private school teachers as well as the schools/institutions we work for.
Private school teachers are crying for better conditions of service and therefore call on all government agencies, private school Associations, and all that matters to come to our aid. We feel we deserve equal benefits as the public school teachers.
Thank you
