Omenugha said it was in line with an earlier directive of the Minister of Education to disengage teachers without the right qualification by December.
Anambra State government has given December 31 this year as the deadline for teachers without the requisite qualification to either acquire it or be given the boot.
The state Ministry of Basic Education in a statement by its Public Relations Officer, Mr. Nnaemeka Egwuonwu, for the Commissioner for Basic Education, Prof. Kate Omenugha, gave the warning on Wednesday.
Omenugha said it was in line with an earlier directive of the Minister of Education to disengage teachers without the right qualification by December.
It added that a reminder had earlier been addressed to the chairman of the Post Primary Schools Service Commission (PPSSC), Anambra State Universal Basic Education (ASUBEB) and Education Secretaries.
The state also referred to the Teachers’ Registration Council of Nigeria’s (TRCN) letter of April 24, regarding the minister’s directive.
The reminder urged teachers to be registered and licensed by TRCN in line with section 17, Sub-Section 2 of the enabling law establishing the council.
