Last Friday’s meeting between the Guyana Teachers Union (GTU) and the Ministry of Education (MoE) to negotiate a multi-year agreement went “favourably for most of the non-financial issues,” GTU President Mark Lyte said.
Speaking with Stabroek News yesterday, Lyte, who had previously complained that the ministry was not making the negotiations a priority, said the union is encouraged by the pace at which they are currently moving. “Last Friday’s meeting was productive and we have had a seemingly favourable response for most of the non-financial issues. We will continue discussion next Friday where financial issues will be discussed,” he explained.
