The Minister of Education indicated that the hourly payment for teachers may increase by about 25%, not 50%, depending on the 2027 budget. The current rates have decreased significantly due to recent legislation linking pay to the average number of working hours. The FSLI union criticized the low rates for teachers, calling for equal pay for hourly work and regular teaching hours. The ministry's budget priorities include salary payments, utility costs, and student scholarships. Any increase in hourly pay remains contingent on the final budget approval for 2027.
