Teachers from Christ the King School, dressed in black and white attire, gathered at the school’s entrance to draw attention to their lack of salary increases for over five years.
Despite a 2023 announcement of increased school fees to fund these raises, teachers haven’t seen any raise as of September 2024.

They stress the need for fair compensation, especially amid inflation and a rising cost of living, emphasizing their vital role in students’ academic success.
