Government has made an announcement that it will re-employ temporary specialist teacher on the condition that they provide evidence that they are studying towards a teacher related qualification.
In the latest development, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Lazarus Dokora revealed that the ministry’s stance regarding engagement of temporary teachers still stood although there was a window for those in specialist subjects that include Maths and Science.
Dokora said those intending to work as temporary teachers should therefore not relax thinking that their non-teaching-related qualifications could get them a job as a teacher but should work towards attaining a teaching-related qualification.
The minister blamed the relaxed stance pertaining to the engagement of temporary teachers as being the reason why some pupils had not done well during public examinations.
He revealed that the establishment of the Teachers Professional Council will go a long way in ensuring that the teaching profession is effectively transformed.

Why temporary teachers? We have more than enough trained teachers in Zimbabwe. Why do you just enjoy hire and firing of trained teachers? There are plenty of retired teachers who still want to serve. Recruit those and others who are still on waiting list then you immediately stop being chaotic! Tisiye titengese airtime yedu nezvihuta.
