"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the incentives Prof. Oniang'o has referred to is paying the science teachers a little more money when they are recruited. Secondly, the training programmes are also supposed to prepare them to be competent professionally. If you have an opportunity to train, it is already an opportunity to upgrade your skills. The third incentive relates to the supply and demand. As you saw recently, our advertisements mainly focused on the areas which have a shortage of mathematics and science teachers. As a result, many of our students are getting more interested in sciences because they have realised that if they pursue education in sciences, they have a better chance of being employed than if they did any of the traditional social science subjects. So, market forces will also assist in this regard. However, we shall continue to provide training. We will include more teachers so that they benefit from this programme when funds are available."
