DURBAN: After Britain and the US, now South Africa, faced with a shortage of mathematics and science teachers, is planning to recruit skilled tutors from India in these fields.
Minister of Education in the Western Cape Province of the country, Cameron Dugmore, made the proposal in the wake of concerns that highly qualified mathematics and science teachers had left the profession over the past 11 years.
Most of the teachers had either taken packages or had migrated to countries such as New Zealand, Australia, Canada, or the UK. Dugmore said among his plans were to recruit teachers from countries such as India where there was an abundance of well-qualified mathematics, science and technology teachers.
Some educationists in KwaZulu-Natal have welcomed the proposal, where theres an acute shortage of mathematics and science teachers especially among the African population
