Thousands of teachers are grappling with uncertainty and frustration over long-overdue promotions, sparking calls for immediate intervention from the TSC, Parliamentary Education Committee and the state.

The situation has been described as demoralizing and unjust by education stakeholders, especially for teachers who have stagnated in the same job group for over eight years despite attending multiple interviews.
