In his 2023 national budget presentation in Parliament on Thursday, Ncube said in addition to the recruitment of 7 000 teachers, incentives will be offered to educators to retain their skills. He said:

> There is a growing demand for teachers to ensure the delivery of quality education, especially at the infant level.

> In 2023, the budget has, therefore, made a provision for the recruitment of an additional 7 000 teachers.

> Furthermore, support will be extended to teacher training, with relevant skills for deployment in marginalised areas.

> This will be complemented by incentives to attract and retain such skills.

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.
