Government had earlier agreed with NAGRAT to pay the outstanding salary arrears, car maintenance allowances and transfer grants by June 13, 2015.
But, speaking to Pulse.com.gh, the President of the Coalition for Concerned Teachers, Ernest Opoku said government has failed to meet the deadline of payment, hence their decision to lay down their tools.
"Some of the teachers have been teaching for two three years; I mean it is quite heartening. You are employed by the government of Ghana for three years; you are being paid for only three months and the rest of the arrears is still lingering on," he said.
"And so, if we are in February, and the affected teachers have still not received their money, then we have no option than to declare strike," he added.
