RWANDA IN NEED OF 4000 KENYAN SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

At least 4,000 Kenyan secondary school teachers could soon land jobs in Rwanda. Education PS James ole Kiyiapi said the Rwandan Government had requested to contract English language teachers through the Ministry of Education.

The PS, however, said the contract would be signed between the two countries based on pre-determined terms by the two countries.

"The Rwandan Government, Teachers Service Commission and my ministry will discuss the terms for these teachers before they are allowed to sign the contract," he said.

The PS said the Rwandan Government made the request during a recent exchange trip by 150 Kenyan teachers to the country.

"That was just a verbal request. We are still waiting for the formal one. They said they wanted diploma holders and above," he said.


Official languages

Christianity is the largest religion in the country, and the official languages of Rwanda are Kinyarwanda, French and English.

Kiyiapi said the criteria of hiring the teachers shall be discussed and the number of years awarded per contract be determined well ahead of the departure. "We know there are several teachers who are qualified and we want to give them a chance to work in Rwanda," he said.
