Coalition of Unemployed Trained Teachers (CUTT)
The Coalition of Unemployed Trained Teachers (CUTT) has called for the attention of the Ministry of Finance (MoF) and the Ministry of Education (MoE) on financial clearance and opening the portal for recruitment.
The Coalition of Unemployed Trained Teachers (CUTT) in a release dated February 21, 2024, drew the attention of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Education, the Ghana Education Service, stakeholders, and the general public to their plight.
CUTT in the release said “Having been the pioneers of the Four Year B.ED Programme in the Colleges of Education, completed our one year mandatory National Service as well as successfully passed our Licensure exams, it saddens our hearts, joy and pride that we, pioneers of a programme that seeks to positively transform the human resource (students) of our country through the requisite skills, knowledge and competencies that we have been equipped with, are being left to our faith and there is no news as to when exactly our postings will be done for us.
“All we hear is, it is assured! As we speak, the license issued to us by the National Teaching Council (NTC) is set to expire in 2025 yet we are still unemployed.

“In light of all these, we find it really unfortunate that despite being the pioneers for both new curriculum(s) introduced in the Colleges of Education (B.ED Programme) and the Basic schools first ultimate teachers for the Common Core Programme, we are left at home without being attended to. It equally raises the question of how the successes or failure(s) of the New B.ED Programme can be realized when we are unemployed.
“We therefore call on the Ministry of Finance to grant us financial clearance and the Ministry of Education as well as the Ghana Education Service to expedite actions by opening the Portal for us to be recruited latest by the first week of March so that the skills, knowledge, competencies and the resources the state has invested in training us do not go in vain.”
