Teachers in the Imbongu district in Southern Highlands province (SHP) are dismayed over teacher appointments to teaching positions for 2013.
According to the appointments made, all the teaching positions for the primary schools in the Imbongu district have been privatised.
The teaching positions have been awarded to any ad hoc teachers, which is not according to the appropriate procedures.

The teaching positions have been awarded to any ad hoc teachers, which is not according to the appropriate procedures.
The teachers believe the postings was made by one person who did not have
knowledge of such work, thereby creating a lot of unfairness and disappointment
among teachers and the Southern Highlands Provincial Education Board (SHPEB).
The head teachers and the board of management proposals for postings for schools have been completely ignored when the posting was done, and because of this, so many long serving teachers have been placed in the pool.
A lot of new people, including graduates, have been given first priority, which creates a lot
of doubt on the staff posting for 2013.

The situation is more difficult because Imbongu district doesn’t have any
district education administrator (DEA) and teachers have been wondering who the
DEA is.
A few teachers who have declarations of eligibility to positions have not been recommended to positions to confirm their eligibilities. These teachers will work hard again for two or three years to renew their eligibilities.
“We are asking the appropriate authorities to carry out investigations into the allegations being raised and immediately review the teachers posting for primary schools in
the Imbongu schools
within the remaining weeks before teachers resume teachings for 2013,” they said.
