Education and Special Needs Education.
“The total number of successful teachers recruited and promoted is two thousand five hundred ninety-nine (2,599). The recruitment of over one thousand (1,000) teachers represent the largest recruitment of secondary school teachers by the government in the country’s history” reads the statement in part.
The statement elaborates that names of successful teachers have already been sent to all the six (6) Education Division offices where candidates can access the results.
The successful teachers are therefore requested to:
(i) Immediately report to the Divisions under which they are appearing for deployment details; and (ii) start working the week beginning today, Monday, 28th March 2022.
The ministry says recruitment and promotion of teachers form part of ongoing efforts by the government to improve the quality of education and service delivery in the country.
The government then assures the nation that it will continue reducing the current high student-teacher ratio to improve the quality of education across all education subsectors. –
