The ministry of education has notified all school heads that all teachers who did not register during the recent exercise with the Teacher Management Information System (TMIS) will miss out on their April salary.
In a letter from the permanent secretary of the ministry, Ms Ketty Lamaro noted that the Ministry had with effect from this academic year adopted EMIS as the primary source of data for determining payment of grants to government education institutions.
“I have however noted that the registration of teaching staff, which should be easier than that of learners, is still low in-spite of our reminder in the calendar of EMIS activities of February 9th. The purpose of the communication was therefore to request all government institutions to upload their teaching and non- teaching staff (including those on government payroll) on the EMIS portal by April 15th and that failure to abide by this deadline is likely to delay payment of April salary.” letter reads in part.
All private institutions were also to upload their teaching and non -teaching staff on the EMIS portal by end of Term 1 of the Academic Year.
Ms Lamaro said that no person shall teach in any public or private school of any description unless he or she had registered as a teacher or licensed to teach in accordance with section II of the Education Act
