The government will employ a further 24,000 teachers by the end the year to boost teacher-learner ratio in public schools.
According to Basic Education Principal Secretary Julius Bitok, the recruitment will push the number of teachers hired in the last 2 years to 100,000.
76,000 teachers have already been hired across junior and secondary education levels to boost staffing levels and to help schools cope with the demands of the Curriculum-Based Education implementation.
