REPORT ON GNAT HOUR UPDATE
Aired on Angel FM Kumasi (96.1) – 18th April, 2026

1. Introduction

The report summarizes key updates shared during the GNAT Hour broadcast on Angel FM Kumasi. The information focuses on teacher promotions, salary adjustments, arrears payments, and upcoming opportunities within the Ghana Education Service (GES).

Key Announcements and Explanations

1. Release of Promotion Aptitude Test Results;
It was announced that the Teachers’ Promotion Aptitude Test Examination results will be released very soon.
This examination is a major requirement for career progression within the Ghana Education Service. Once results are released, teachers who pass will become eligible for promotion to higher ranks. This step is critical because it determines both professional growth and salary improvement.

2. Placement on Appropriate Salary Scale;
Successful candidates will be placed on their rightful salary scale shortly after the release of results:
Promotion is not only about title—it directly affects a teacher’s earnings. Being placed on the correct salary scale means teachers will begin to receive salaries that match their new rank. This helps correct delays or mismatches in pay that may have occurred previously.

3. Opening of the 2026 Promotion Portal;
The 2026 Promotion Portal will be opened soon after the release of the December 2025 results:
The promotion portal is an online system where teachers apply for advancement. Opening the portal means:
Eligible teachers can submit applications
New candidates can begin their promotion process
The GES can organize upcoming aptitude tests efficiently
This is an important administrative step that ensures fairness and accessibility in promotions.

4. Payment of Arrears to Teachers;
Teachers who recently demonstrated are expected to receive arrears payments as follows:
1. End of May 2026: Payment of four(4) months arrears.

2. By July 2026: Payment of an additional four (4) months arrears.
Arrears refer to delayed salary payments owed to teachers, often due to late promotions or salary adjustments. This announcement indicates that:
The government or relevant authorities are addressing payment delays
A structured plan is in place to clear outstanding debts
Teachers should expect financial relief in phases.

5. Upcoming Director II and Director I Promotions;
The promotion portal will soon open for applications into Director II and Director I positions.
These are higher-ranking positions within the Ghana Education Service. Opening applications means:
Qualified teachers can aim for leadership roles
There are opportunities for career advancement beyond entry and mid-level positions
The system is creating pathways for experienced educators to move up

6. Examination Format for Director Levels;
The format for the Director II and Director I exams will follow the same structure as the December 2025 Deputy Director examination.
This provides clarity and preparation guidance for candidates:
Teachers can use past questions as study material
It reduces uncertainty about exam structure
It allows better preparation, increasing chances of success

General Implications

The updates suggest positive developments within the Ghana Education Service:
Improved career progression opportunities for teachers
Efforts to resolve salary delays and arrears
Transparency in promotion processes
Better preparation guidance for future candidates
However, teachers are encouraged to:
Stay updated through official GNAT and GES communication channels
Prepare adequately for upcoming examinations
Keep necessary documents ready for portal applications

Conclusion

The GNAT Hour update provides encouraging news for teachers across Ghana. With the imminent release of promotion results, planned payment of arrears, and the opening of new promotion opportunities, teachers can look forward to both professional advancement and financial improvement.
