Teachers stranded over non-payment of GCE marking fee

Reports say dozens of teachers who rectified the scripts of General Certificate of Education Examination, GCE in Buea are stranded.

This is after education officials did not meet their own part of the bargain. They failed to pay their script dues, narrated one of the teachers in frustration.

“Teachers who marked the 2022 session of the GCE A level at the Presbyterian Comprehensive Secondary School, PCSS Buea marking centre have not been paid their script dues. Many of them are stranded on campus and no authority is making a statement.”

He went on that: “They had to pay us yesterday but latter told us to come today 09/08/22 at midday. We have been there since then yet no one is making a statement. To make matters worst teachers have been sent out of the waiting room to stand outside with the rains and cold in Buea.”

This is not the first time GCE markers in Cameroon are facing similar ordeals.
