Kaduna to review teachers’ salaries, other welfare packages

The Commissioner for Education, Science and Technology in Kaduna State, Alhaji Ja’afaru Sani, has said that plans are underway for an upward review of teachers’ salaries and other welfare packages that will make the profession more attractive in the state.

Sani, who gave an update on the ongoing recruitment of teachers for public primary schools in the state, said the state government deemed it necessary to motivate and retain qualified and professional teachers posted to the rural areas.

The commissioner said the state Universal Basic Education Board would ensure that the newly recruited teachers were available for deployment to schools by February.
