Over 4,000 HODs in Huge Back Pays

The implementation of the policy in 2013 had lumped the senior teachers with responsibilities at the same scale as  their juniors at C1, whereas their counterparts at secondary schools had been remunerated at D4 salary scale.

On Friday, Lobatse High Court’s Justice Godfrey Ntlhomiwa ended the long-dragging discrepancies and granted the primary school teachers their wishes, and ruled that the primary schools’ senior teachers with responsibilities be copensated accordingly and retrospectively, from the date of the implementation of the LOO policy in July 2013.
