A good number of teachers who sat for the 2023 Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination (GTLE) 2&3 - 9,556 teachers, have failed. It represents over 47 percent failure.
The National Teaching Council (NTC) disclosed in a press statement on Wednesday, December 20, that out of the 20,181 teachers who participated, only 10,625 successfully passed.
“The National Teaching Council (NTC) is set to release the results of the 2023 Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination (GTLE) 2&3 on Thursday, December 21, 2023,” the statement said.
“All candidates can check their results from the NTC online portal at exam.ntc.gov.gh by using either their pins given during registration or their examination index numbers using their phone numbers. Candidates are advised to print their provisional certificates after checking results.”
The Teacher Licensure Examination has been in the news in recent weeks after former President John Mahama promised to cancel it if re-elected in the 2024 general elections.
Mr. Mahama raised concerns about the need for an additional test for Colleges of Education students after completing their courses and exams.
While Mahama and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) call for the abolition of the licensure exams, the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) opposes the proposal, asserting that the policy is beneficial and should be retained.
