Over 1,000 teachers posted to Eastern Region About one thousand 428 professionally trained and certificated teachers from the Colleges of Education have been posted to the onward posting to the districts and municipalities in the region. One thousand 108 out of the number were teachers sponsored by the District and Municipal Assemblies for their Post--Secondary courses while 320 were non--sponsored. This was made known by the Eastern Regional Director of Education, Gertrude Mensah, in an interview with Radio Ghana in Koforidua. She said the Educational Directorates in the region are in the process of recruiting and posting newly trained teachers to their stations by December 1. Madam Mensah emphasized that the postings will cater for only those who completed the three--year Diploma in Basic Education at the Colleges of Education successfully. She explained that those who could not pass their examinations have to rewrite and pass before posting. Madam Mensah advised the fresh teachers to work fast on the Integrated Personal Payroll Data (IPPD) to enable them to receive their monthly salaries as early as possible. GBCONLINE ---DECRYPTED---
