RAD­HI­CA DE SIL­VA

Ed­u­ca­tion Min­is­ter Dr Michael Dowlath says the Teach­ing Ser­vice Com­mis­sion (TSC) has ac­cel­er­at­ed ef­forts to fill hun­dreds of teach­ing va­can­cies across the coun­try as part of a wider ini­tia­tive to strength­en both aca­d­e­m­ic and tech­ni­cal-vo­ca­tion­al ed­u­ca­tion.

Speak­ing to re­porters while at­tend­ing the 25th an­niver­sary cel­e­bra­tion of Debe Sec­ondary School, Dowlath said the Min­istry of Ed­u­ca­tion, in col­lab­o­ra­tion with the TSC, was work­ing to en­sure all va­cant teach­ing and ad­min­is­tra­tive posts are filled “as quick­ly as pos­si­ble”.
