Primary and Secondary Education Minister, Torerayi Moyo, said that a total of 4 600 teachers have been recruited since January this year, with an additional 2 400 set to be recruited during the third term.
As reported by the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/government-hires-4-600-teachers-eyes-2-400-more/">Chronicle</a>, Moyo said this recruitment is aimed at addressing the shortage of teachers and improving the teacher-to-pupil ratio to guarantee quality education. He said:
<blockquote>
Government has already recruited 4 600 teachers and plans to recruit an additional 2 400 during the third term…
We firmly believe that motivated teachers with good academic qualifications are the bedrock of quality education.
</blockquote>
As of 2023, the teacher-pupil ratio stood at an average of 1:58 for primary and 1:38 for secondary schools (contrary to the acceptable ratios of 1:45 and 1:35, respectively).
Moyo also said the Government plans to construct at least 200 new schools this year and some of these schools will be built through public-private partnerships.

Govt Hires 4 600, 2 400 More Expected

The Minister of Primary and Secondary Education, Torerayi Moyo, has said the government has employed 2 000 new teachers this term and plans to recruit 5 000 more.
Speaking during a meeting with teachers’ unions and other stakeholders in Harare on Monday, 26 February, Moyo also said there are plans to build 2 800 new schools. Said Moyo (<a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/psc-targets-recruiting-5-000-teachers-this-year/">via The Herald</a>):
<blockquote>
We decentralised the recruitment of teachers starting from January 2024, so far we have recruited 2 000 teachers, and we are left with 5 000 more teachers.
We are sure that in the second term, we will recruit more. We are also going to address the shortage of schools by building a further 2 800 schools.
</blockquote>
Moyo told trade unionists that when recruiting teachers, the Public Service Commission (PSC) will give preference to those who completed their college studies long back.
He also pledged to ensure that BEAM disbursements are done timeously so that schools operate efficiently and procure materials on time.
Moyo said allowances that were given to teachers should be brought back and that teachers in rural areas deserve hardship allowances.

Govt Plans To Recruit 5 000 More Teachers In 2024 - Education Minister

The government is recruiting another 8 382 teachers to complement the existing staff.
Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education spokesperson Taungana Ndoro said 7 000 names were sent to Treasury for its concurrence and to budget for their salaries and allowances before they were engaged.
He said 1 382 names were still with the Public Service Commission (PSC) for vetting and approval. Said Ndoro:
<blockquote>
We have 1 382 attrition posts awaiting PSC approval, and they will be recruited once the processes are done.
We also have 7 000 posts sent to Treasury for concurrence so they will also be joining once the process is done.
Everyone is back at school and it’s business as usual across the country.
However, there are schools that need more staff and that is why the process of engaging more teachers is in place.

Govt Hires 8 300 More Teachers

The Government is recruiting more qualified teachers to be deployed in 28 largely rural districts of the eight non-metropolitan provinces.
The teachers will be deployed to 28 districts in Mashonaland Central, Mashonaland East, Mashonaland West, Masvingo, Manicaland, Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South, and the Midlands.
The 28 districts include Muzarabani, Rushinga, Mount Darwin, Mudzi, Uzumba Maramba Pfungwe, Hurungwe, Chiredzi, Mwenezi, Chipinge, Binga, Lupane, Tsholotsho, Bulilima, Matobo, Gwanda, Insiza, Umzingwane, Gokwe North and South.
The recruitment is being done through the Public Service Commission (PSC) in collaboration with the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education.
In a statement, PSC secretary Tsitsi Choruma interested newly-qualified teachers should submit the required documents to the district office of choice by not later than 16 January. Part of the statement reads:
<blockquote>
Those who are interested should complete application forms available at the Public Service Commission district offices.
Duly completed teacher application forms with certified copies of national identification, birth certificate, academic and professional qualifications including transcripts should be submitted to the district office of choice by not later than January 16.
</blockquote>
Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education spokesperson Taungana Ndoro said qualified teachers will have the opportunity to work in their own districts. He said:
<blockquote>
We are recruiting teachers from their own districts through our district offices so as to avoid the issue of transfers.
We are giving people the opportunity to work in their own districts so that it would be better for them.
The applications are still coming because the vacancies are still open. This is a lucky shot for people who grew up in those districts.
</blockquote>
In August 2022, Amalgamated Rural Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (ARTUZ), secretary-general Robson Chere urged the government needs to decentralise teacher deployment to ensure that teachers are placed in areas where they can speak the local language. | <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/massive-recruitment-for-teachers-underway/">The Herald</a>

Govt Recruiting Teachers At District Level

Teachers’ unions have criticised the move by the government to recruit 7 000 teachers in 2023 saying they are too few.
Presenting the 2023 national budget in Parliament on Thursday, Ncube said the recruitment of a further 7 000 teachers will ensure the delivery of quality education.
Amalgamated Rural Teachers Union of Zimbabwe (ARTUZ) president Obert Masaraure said the move is welcome but does not fully address the shortage of teachers in schools. He said:
<blockquote>
Zimbabwe has a shortage of almost 90 000 teachers and more are leaving the profession because of underpayment.
The 7 000 teachers we seek to recruit will be way below the numbers needed. Recruitment is however welcome and we should improve conditions of service to retain quality teachers.
</blockquote>
Zimbabwe Teachers Association secretary-general Goodwill Taderera said:
<blockquote>
The number of teachers that are being funded is not enough. As we speak, we have serious understaffing in schools.
The number is not enough and that continues to exert pressure on teachers and that affects education.
</blockquote>
In June, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Evelyn Ndlovu said the country had a shortfall of 25 000 teachers.
She also said the country has an establishment of 136 000 teachers.

7 000 More Teachers Are Not Enough - Unions

The government has taken measures to avoid the controversy that engulfed the recruitment of infant teachers early this year when non-<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Ndebele" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ndebele</a> speaking teachers were deployed in Bulawayo.
In a statement on microblogging site, Twitter, on Tuesday afternoon, the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Ministry_of_Information,_Publicity_and_Broadcasting_Services" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services</a> said teachers at infant level should provide proof that they are proficient in the local language of the district they will be applying for a teaching post. The statement reads:
<blockquote>Prospective teacher registration for employment began yesterday at District Education offices. Applicants who wish to teach at infant level are required to provide proof of proficiency in the local language spoken at the district level. Contact Ministry of Education and PSC offices.</blockquote>
In March this year, the Secretary for Primary and Secondary Education Mrs <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Tumisang_Thabela" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tumisang Thabela</a> had to apologise to the people of Bulawayo over the deployment of teachers that are not proficient in the region’s local languages. She said measures were to be taken to rectify the issue.
