Said Murwira: > We found out that this number would not be adequate to meet this and satisfy this, so we started on a programme to train Science and Mathematics teachers and these are colleges that previously were not training secondary school teachers — which are Mkoba, Masvingo Teachers’ College and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo Polytechnic. > If we desire industry from our education system, therefore we should give the universities that mandate which we have done. > Because of the above intervention, by 2022, the total number of Science teachers will be 3 003 and Mathematics teachers will be 792 in addition to the total number of 1 660 from the three secondary teachers’ colleges. > The total projected number of Science and Mathematics teachers by 2023 would then be 5 455. *Related:* *Govt Redesigns Teaching Of STEM* *Govt To Build Modern Laboratories In Rural Areas To Support STEM – Prof Murwirwa* *More: Sunday News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
