The Teacher Trainees’ Association of Ghana (TTAG) has asked students who have not received any allowance in the first and second payment cycles to submit their details to their respective local executives by Tuesday, November 10.
The directive follows concerns over inconsistencies in the recent disbursements, with some trainees receiving allowances covering two months, others three months, while some have received payments for four months.
In a press release dated November 9, TTAG said it had engaged the Student Loan Trust Fund (SLTF), which confirmed that the disbursement exercise had been completed.
The association said the SLTF had explained that trainees who received fewer months of allowances than expected still had outstanding payments to be settled, urging them to remain patient.
However, students who did not receive any payment in either the first or second disbursement have been asked to submit their details to their respective local TTAG Students’ Representative Council (SRC) executives for documentation.
Affected trainees are required to provide their full names, Ghana Card numbers and index numbers to enable local executives to prepare college-based lists for submission to the National Secretariat.
TTAG has urged local executives to ensure that the lists are accurate, free of duplicate entries and limited strictly to trainees who have not received any allowance.
The association emphasised that students who have received partial payments should be excluded, as the SLTF is already addressing their outstanding balances.
TTAG added that its National Secretariat would maintain engagement with the SLTF and communicate further developments to trainees as they emerge.
The association reiterated its commitment to safeguarding the welfare and interests of teacher trainees across all 49 public Colleges of Education.
