“Seize this opportunity to earnestly work towards producing a great generation of teachers,” he said in a Facebook post on Tuesday. The ad hoc recruitment exercise, which involves the hiring of 18,702 teachers, should make up for the shortage of educators in certain subjects nationwide. Radzi said the Ministry of Education (MOE) will continue to work closely with the appointing authority, the Education Services Commission (SPP), to expedite appointments and placements of remaining vacancies.
