The Teacher Trainees Association of Ghana (TTAG) has dismissed rumors circulating about a supposed increase in allowances for teacher trainees.
The association clarified that no formal communication or government statement has confirmed any such adjustment.
Despite earlier speculations, TTAG representatives have expressed that the association remains committed to advocating for the well-being of teacher trainees, with allowances being a core issue they continue to address with relevant authorities.
The group emphasized that they will update the public once official decisions are made on this matter.
TTAG further explained that while the issue of allowances remains critical, their role is to ensure that the government provides adequate resources for trainees during their studies.
They assured that any changes to financial support for teacher trainees would be clearly announced through official channels, not based on rumors or unverified information.
Teacher trainees have expressed concerns over their allowances for some time, with many feeling that the current support does not reflect the rising cost of living.
However, TTAG leaders remain cautious about premature claims, urging stakeholders to await proper updates rather than fueling unconfirmed reports.
The association also noted their continued dialogue with policymakers, ensuring that teacher training institutions and their students are not overlooked when it comes to national financial planning.
Despite no immediate changes to allowances, TTAG continues to push for improvements in conditions for trainee teachers across the country.
While there is no official confirmation about the allowance increase, TTAG remains focused on its mission to represent the interests of teacher trainees.
The association made it clear that it will continue to monitor the situation closely and advocate for the resources necessary to support future educators in Ghana.
