Ivorian teachers can no longer provide supplementary lessons to their own students for payment. The measure was reiterated by the Directorate of Schools, High Schools, and Colleges in a note made public on October 2, 2026, in the name of respecting professional ethics and equality among learners.<\/p>\n
According to this directive, classes held during regular hours must be sufficiently clear, accessible, and adapted to the needs of the students. The administration considers that a teacher cannot therefore create, for the same students under their responsibility, a parallel paid offering likely to cause confusion between their public service mission and a private service.<\/p>\n
This ban does not target all tutoring sessions. It specifically targets paid sessions organized by a teacher for their own students, in a context where educational authorities emphasize the ethics, responsibility, and exemplary conduct of teaching staff.<\/p>\n
The reminder comes a few weeks after the start of the 2026-2027 school year. The Ministry of National Education has simultaneously strengthened teacher training: 4,900 contractual secondary school teachers have been recruited and deployed since April 2026, while several continuing education programs have been launched to improve the quality of educational supervision.<\/p>\n
The Directorate of Schools, High Schools, and Colleges requests that school administrators and relevant staff ensure the enforcement of this rule during the 2026-2027 academic year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
