    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As far as I know, the TSC recruits teachers for the Ministry. The teachers are not recruited by Members of Parliament. There is a question on a teacher who graduated in 2020, and who cannot be employed because of her subject combination. I am told that teachers should have had C+ (plus) and above in Mathematics for them to get employed. I urge the Member to give us more details on that one so that we can follow up and find out what the actual problem is. We can then resolve it. One teacher per class based on the Curriculum Based Establishment (CBE) is the basis upon which teachers in primary schools are employed. Where they need more, the TSC does rationalisation every holiday. Every holiday, TSC undertakes a rationalisation exercise to determine which teachers need to be moved. Where there are more, they are moved to where there are less. Where there are less, they get more teachers so that there is a form of a balance. This is an exercise that the TSC conducts every holiday. They then recruit, replace or transfer at the time the school opens.
