The current teaching workforce is around 136 000, while the teacher-to-pupil ratio is 1:70 on average. Ncube said: > Government seeks to reduce the teacher-to-pupil ratio, and has set aside resources for the recruitment of 10 000 teachers in 2022. > To implement the ministry’s priority projects, an amount of $11.6 billion is being allocated to the Primary and Secondary Education ministry under the 2022 national budget. The demand for education services covering primary, secondary, higher and tertiary levels have been growing over the years. This has not been matched with infrastructural development programmes due to resource and capacity constraints, among others. He added that the need to decongest existing schools in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and reduction of walking distance has prompted the need for additional facilities. The minister also said there will be a need to procure information communication technology gadgets to promote e-learning during the COVID-19 era. Meanwhile, teachers have in the past two years been protesting periodically over poor salaries and working conditions.
