Approximately 5,000 teachers have their teacher registrations expiring on the 31st of this month.
In a bid to ensure all educators are registered, the Fiji Teachers Registration Authority will open its office this Saturday from 8am to 5pm to cater for renewals.
Chief Executive Sangeeta Singh highlighted the importance of this initiative, explaining that it is a tradition to extend services during this period to accommodate the teachers.
The Authority hopes the extended hours will help teachers avoid a penalty of $30 and the need for additional documentation, such as a new medical report and police clearance, which become mandatory if registrations lapse.
The FTRA commends and appreciates the hard work of the teachers during the academic year 2024.
