Teachers' concerns over scarce skills to be addressed

Teachers have been concerned why some of their colleagues were left out of the scarce skills occupations although they had been put under that category in schools.

A savingram, dated October 28, 2009, from the director of the Teaching Service Management (TSM), Phillip Tsumake, lists some of these occupations as chemists working as chemistry teachers, lecturers with BSc (science), Post graduate diploma, masters and Bachelor of Education degrees in science and chemistry as well as chartered accountants who are commerce or accounting teachers.
