In his Teachers Day message, Rari stated that teachers’ morale and working appetite have diminished to their lowest ebb as a result of non-progression beyond C Grade top-notch. The BOSETU official says the Pemandu Consultancy that was instituted by government to investigate the welfare and productivity of the public service in Botswana has pointed out that more than 84% of teachers are bottlenecked at the top-notch of C Grade, mainly salary scale C1.
“Pemandu indicated that this has frustrated the teachers and has dampened their morale and as a consequence, productivity has dramatically, dwindled. Pemandu points out that this can be remedied through what they referred to as a fan-shaped salary structure,” stressed Rari.
