According to an official statement signed by the Head of Public Relations, Mr. Daniel Fenyi, the approval paves the way for the GES to complete all necessary administrative processes to ensure that the affected teachers receive their long-awaited salaries.
“The financial clearance allows the Ghana Education Service to complete all necessary processes to ensure the staff receive their salaries,” the statement noted.
The GES further indicated that although the clearance expires on December 31, 2025, management is making every effort to ensure that all staff are placed on the mechanized payroll in time for the November 2025 salary payments.
