NTC announces major reforms to Teacher Licensure Examination

——————————————-

The National Teaching Council (NTC) has officially rolled out a comprehensive reform of the Ghana Teacher Licensure Examination (GTLE), aimed at streamlining the certification process and aligning it more closely with teacher training programmes across the country.

GTLE Now Integrated into Final Year Exams Under the previous system, teacher trainees were required to sit for the GTLE a full year after completing their training. This policy has now been abolished.

The NTC has disclosed that with the new reforms, the GTLE is now fully integrated into the final year examination schedule of accredited teacher training institutions. This move is expected to reduce delays in certification and ease the transition from training to professional practice.

Candidates Can Now Write GTLE in Their Own Colleges Previously, candidates were barred from writing the GTLE in their own colleges or institutions of training. According to the NTC, this restriction has been lifted. Trainees will now be permitted to sit for the exam within their own institutions, improving convenience and reducing logistical challenges.
