The Trinidad and Tobago Unified Teachers’ Association (TTUTA) has confirmed that teachers will not receive a Christmas backpay due to “staffing issues,” but the union is confident the money owed to them will be paid early in 2026.

This was the word from Chief Personnel Officer Dr Daryl Dindial yesterday during a “meet and greet” with the TTUTA executive, which the union described as “very fruitful, very cordial, and very professional.”
