THE CARIBBEAN UNION of Teachers (CUT) is going after the Caribbean Examination Council (CXC) for payment for teachers who mark school-based assessment projects (SBAs).

Even as registrar of CXC, Glenroy Cumberbatch, said last week that the council would not be entertaining the payment of teachers, president of the Barbados Secondary Teachers’ Union, Mary Redman, said the union would not be letting up and Cumberbatch would have to engage the teachers’ unions throughout the region, through the CUT.

“I am now first vice-president [of the CUT] and under my portfolio falls professional development and education, and therefore this CXC matter falls directly under my portfolio and we will be aggressively pursuing this whole compensation for CXC issue,” she reported during a Press conference yesterday.
