On March 17, 2025, at the Quinga
administrative post in the Liúpo district, Nampula province, northern
Mozambique, a meeting was held between the literacy instructors and the
director of the Quinga Primary School to organize documents and prepare for the
upcoming start of classes.
During the meeting, the literacy
instructors expressed their difficulties, particularly concerning the previous
year. Throughout the entire previous year, they did not receive their salaries
until they reached the district education office to understand what was
happening and the reasons behind the delay in payment.
In the meeting, the instructors showed
challenges in organizing their documents to submit the ZIP for the school, as
they did not want to continue teaching before receiving their overdue salaries
from the previous year.
However, the school administration
convinced the instructors to proceed with the lessons, assuring them that both
the previous year's and this year's salaries would be paid. They are now
organizing their documents to submit to the school administration and later
forward them to the Liúpo district education office.
This year, the payment of literacy
instructors' salaries at the Quinga administrative post will be different from
previous years. In past years, the contract was quarterly, but this year
payments will be made monthly, and each month will include two salary payments,
including the one from the previous year.
Initially, the literacy instructors
did not want to continue teaching, but they reluctantly agreed, hoping to receive
their overdue salaries. The director promised that such a situation would not
happen again this year. (BP)
