EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Plan is a natural and logical sequel to SEDP – I. Which was complemented between 2004 and 2009 SEDP - II reminds again its readers the primegoal of Secondary education in Tanzania and the place of the many national reforms and statements regarding the Education sector which have been given in the last 15 years. Some of these documents include the Development vision, MKUKUTA, the Education and Training Policy of 1995, the Education Sector Development Programme, ESDP (2001) and the Millennium Development Goals. In this document, SEDP-I is revisited with some details of its initial objectives,
strategies and targets. The achievements and under achievements have been
given with some data.
A formative review of SEDP – I has shown how successful the Plan was
especially in the Improvement of access and Equity. Some of the highlights
include:
Form 1 to 4 enrolment increased from 401,598 (girls 189, 198) in 2004 to
1,401,559 (girls 627,041) in 2009 which is an increase of 249%. Girls
increased by 231%;
Form 5 and 6 enrolment increased from 31,001 in 2004 (girls 10,765) to
64,843 (girls 26,416) in 2009 which is an increase of 109%. Girls
increased by 145%;
Gross Enrolment Ratio increased from 9.4% in 2004 to 31.3% in 2009;
Net Enrolment Ratio increased from 5.9% in 2004 to 27.3% in 2009;
Transition rate from primary to secondary education improved from 36.1%
in 2004 to 67.5% in 2006; and dropped to 51.6% in 2009;
Number of secondary schools increased from 1,291 (government 828 and
463 non-government) in 2004 to 4,102 in 2009: (3,283 Government and
819 non-government);
The review has also shown areas where the targets were not realized and
areas posing some challenge to the development of secondary education.
Some of these challenge/issues are:
v
DRAFT SEDP
Ensuring more places for those who pass well CSEE (there are only a
few places today hence many qualifiers are left out);
Providing scholarship grants to the growing number of needy pupils;
Providing competent and knowledgeable Heads of Schools;
Improving the pass rate at ‘O’ and ‘A’ levels.
Acute shortages of teachers, especially in the sciences and
mathematics, resulting in many students not able to do these subjects
at all.
Poor teaching approaches in the classroom, as it is of transmittal type,
with students relying heavily on the teacher and archaic notes, with
classroom time not being used efficiently and effectively for mental
engagement of the pupils.
Because of these challenges this second phase of the Secondary Education
Development Plan focuses on five main areas:
Quality and relevance of the Secondary Education offered and how it is
delivered,
More places to improve equitable access. Infrastructures that were
incomplete during SEDP-I should be completed now to assure the needed
places,
The teaching force and the classroom work,
Management Issues to improve efficiency and uphold good governance
and
Cross-cutting issues including HIV/AIDS
Objectives for each of the areas mentioned are given and for each general
objective, there are several specific objectives, strategies and targets. When
these objectives are fulfilled to the measure shown in the targets there in, SEDP
– II will have been delivered.
Chapter three of this document deals with the Institutional arrangement,
Monitoring and Evaluation of the Plan, flow of information and budget summary
SEDP – II will be operationalized by several stake holders including the Ministry
of Education and Vocational Training, MoEVT, the Prime Ministers Office –
vi
DRAFT SEDP
Regional Administration and Local Government, PMO – RALG, the Development
Partners, DPs, Schools Boards and Management Teams at school level and
NGOs. The roles of each stakeholder is identified.
This Plan is expected to cost some Tas 1,054,044 millions in the 5 years of its
execution/implementation. the money will come from the central government, the
LGAs, DPs and the Wananchi through financial contributions and physical
involvement in the implantation of the Plan.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 The Strategic Importance of Secondary Education
Secondary education occupies a pivotal role in the functioning of the economy and
the education system itself. For a long time to come, the majority of the people in
both the private and public sectors are likely to be secondary education leavers. The
whole primary education system relies on teachers who are a product of the
secondary education system. Candidates of higher and tertiary education and
training are products of the secondary education system. This is the essence of
being pivotal, or the link pin.
Important externalities of secondary education are increasingly being recognized in
family planning, education of the off-springs, political participation and health.
Hence good quality secondary education is a prerequisite for good quality human
life, labour skills and economic productivity. Secondary education is thus a
necessary, though not sufficient, condition for poverty reduction in the entire
population. It is in effect, a robust secondary education that will create a vibrant and
viable middle class essential for the contemplated economic boost placing the
country among middle income countries.
1.2 Policy Context
The country has benefited from many policy directives and reforms which have
been in place for the last 15 years. These have shaped our thinking and guided even
our educational activities and programmes. Among them are the following:
1.2.1 Development Vision
(a) Tanzania Development Vision 2025
Tanzania Development Vision 2025 accords high priority to the education
sector which is considered to be pivotal in bringing about social and economic
transformation, as described in the following statement:
1
DRAFT SEDP
Education should be treated as a strategic agent for mind-set
transformation and for the creation of a well-educated nation,
sufficiently equipped with the knowledge needed to competently and
competitively solve the development challenges which face the
Nation. In this light, the education system should be restructured and
transformed qualitatively with a focus on promoting creativity and
problems solving (URT 2000:19).
(b) Education Vision
In response to Development Vision 2025, its education component aims at
creating “a well-educated, knowledgeable and skilled Tanzanian able to
competently and competitively cope with political, social, cultural, economic
and technological development challenges at national and international
levels.”
The Government seeks to provide equitable quality education and vocational
skills to all. This is to ensure, among other factors, adequate and quality
teachers, conducive environment for stakeholders willing to participate in
providing education delivery and conducive learning/teaching environment for
students and teachers at all levels.
1.2.2 The Education and Training Policy (ETP 1995)
This Policy established three main purposes for secondary education namely to:
(a) consolidate and broaden the scope of ideas, knowledge, skills and
concepts already acquired at primary education level;
(b) prepare students for tertiary, higher, vocational, technical and professional
education and training; and
(c) prepare students for the world of work.
(The ETP-1995 document is presently being reviewed but this focus will
remain).

DRAFT SEDP
1.2.3 Education Sector Development Programme (ESDP 1997)
Following the ETP (1995), the Education Sector Development Programme (ESDP)
as a strategy towards as Sector-Wide Approach (SWAp) to education development
was initiated in 1997. The main goal of SWAp was to achieve the long-term human
development and poverty reduction targets and to redress the problems of
fragmented interventions through projects so as to promote the collaboration and
partnership among all stakeholders, using pooled human, financial and material
resources. This collaboration is hinged on planning, implementing, monitoring and
evaluation of education delivery. ESDP objectives on secondary education sub-
sector are derived from the major objectives of ETP on improving the quality of the
education process; increasing and improving access and equity for all children;
devolving authority to local levels; and broadening the financial base for supporting
education. ESDP was reviewed in 2008 to incorporate MKUKUTA, key
programmes such as PEDP and SEDP and Joint Assistance Strategy for Tanzania
(JAST).
1.2.4 MKUKUTA
The Government launched the MKUKUTA in 2000 to address issues of economic
growth and poverty reduction. It was expected that the steady GDP growth should,
in the long run, succeed in reducing the severity and extent of poverty in the
country. Yet, this will require better management of the economy, equitable
distribution of economic gain, greater strategic investments, and improved
technological and labour productivity. The MKUKUTA squarely recognizes the
vital importance of the expansion and qualitative improvement of the whole
education system, and especially secondary education system. This is essential for
any acceleration in economic growth and productivity. All this is predicated on
having high quality labour force, which in turn is dependent on the quality of
education and skills imparted in the training system. There is no doubt today that,
all things being equal, education is the greatest equalizer of income disparities in all
countries.

1.3 The Secondary Education Development Plan Phase One (SEDP I)
1.3.1 The Secondary Education Development Plan launched in 2004 was a Plan intended
to be implemented in three phases of five years each. The Plan which was
developed within the context of the broad Education Sector Development
Programme (1997) and the Secondary Education Master Plan (2000) had the
following objectives:
(a) Improvement of Access
The goal was to reach 50% of cohort participation and transition rate from
primary to secondary education by 2010 through:
(i) optimum utilization of teachers, tutors and physical facilities;
(ii) expansion of school facilities especially in underserved areas;
(iii) support to the non-government sector;
(iv) expansion of Form Five and Six;
(v) expansion of Open and Distance learning;
(vi) reduction of dropout, repetition and failure rates at all levels; and
(vii) Improving affordability and reduction of household education costs.
(b) Improvement of Equity
The goal was to ensure equity of participation in underserved areas by
geographical locations, gender and income inequalities through:
(i) allocating more resources in education to underserved areas;
(ii) providing scholarships to pupils from poor families;
(iii) improvement of retention and performance of girls;
(iv) improvement of facilities in schools of children with disabilities;
(v) improvement of education provision for the marginalized social
groups; and
(vi) reduction of school fees for day students.
4
DRAFT SEDP
(c) Improvement of Quality
The overall aim was to raise the pass rate of Div. I-III from 36% (2004) to 70%
(2009) through:
(i) in-service courses for up-grading and continuous professional
development of teachers;
(ii) curriculum review;
(iii) improvement of school libraries;
(iv) providing capitation grant for teaching and learning materials and
other charges;
(v) improvement of examination structure, type and quality;
(vi) expansion of production of Diploma and Degree teachers; and
(vii) sensitization and education on HIV and AIDS, gender and
environment.
(d) Management Reforms
The overall goal was to increase efficiency and responsiveness in the operation
of secondary education. This was to be achieved through Decentralisation by
Devolution (D by D) of authority and responsibilities to lower levels of
management.
(e) Improvement of Education Management System
The principal goal was to make sure that the Ministry becomes more efficient
in executing its core functions of policy formulation, monitoring and
evaluation, providing regulatory framework, coordination and optimization of
resource use. This was to be achieved through:
(i) strengthening the inspectorate and support mechanisms;
(ii) improving access to and use of EMIS;
(iii) management capacity building at all levels;
(iv) communication and publicity of the plan; and
(v) strengthening monitoring and evaluation.

DRAFT SEDP
1.3.2 Implementation of the programme started in 2004/05 using Central
Government local funds, the World Bank Credit, Local Government,
ADF, Community contributions, other stakeholders including CSOs
and individuals. Development Partners contributed indirectly to the
programme through General Budget Support. A total of Tshs.
1,433,084 billion was estimated to be used for 5 years of operation.
A strong political will, an excellent public support and community
participation have enabled good performance in expanding access and
capacity building at various levels. However, more is wished to have
been observed in some of the programme components like
Improvement of equity, Improvement of quality and Cross cutting
issues. Assessment made in June 2009 shows the following trend:
a) With regard to improvement of access,
The transition rate from Primary to Secondary is 51.7%. This is above the target
set at 50% by 2010. The success in improvement of access is largely due to the
increase in the number of schools every where in the Country. The number of
Secondary Schools has increased from 1291 of 2004 to 4102 in 2009 (see annex
1) Must of these Schools have been built by “Wananchi” in their wards.
The transition rate from Form 4 to Form 5 has been fluctuating from 30% of
2004 to 39% of 2006 to 30% again in 2008. This is partly due to under
achievement in the pass rates at CSEE and also the fact that there are few places
for Form 5.
The Net and Gross Enrolment Ratios at Form 1 – 4 increased substantively
though they didn’t reach the targeted 50%. NER increased from 8.4% of 2004
to 29.1in 2009, while GER increased from 12.9% of 2004 to 43.6 in 2009.
These ratios are expected to rise further in the current and coming years.
A good number of learners enrolled with the Open and Distance Learning
(ODL) under the Institute of Adult Education. Reports at June 2009 showed an
increase from 16,801 learners in 2004 to 35,804 learners in 2009. This is below
the targeted number of 50,000 by 2010. However there are many learners who
6
DRAFT SEDP
do their Secondary education privately (not through IAE) and their numbers are
not included in these statistics (see table ..here after)

Total 85,292 147,609 199,283 241,472 349,740
There has been big drop outs in certain areas of the country mainly due to
truancy. Reasons for truancy are many. With the devolution of powers to PMO
– RALG, this issue will be addressed with greater success.
b) Regarding Equity,
Secondary education places are still offered at 1:1 ratio for boys and girls.
All the community-built schools are supposed to admit equal numbers of
boys and girls. However there has been a big difference between boys and
girls joining Form 1 in government schools especially in the years 2008 and
2009 (BEST 2009). This is mostly because of poor performance of girls at
PSLE. As a result of this (and other factors leading to dropouts for girls) the
percentage of female enrolments at Forms 1 – 4 has dropped from 47.3 in
2005 to 44.7 in 2009 for girls. However the percentage has risen from 37.8
in 2005 to 41.5 in 2009 at Form 5 level. There are deliberate efforts to
avail more places for girls at this level.
We have also scored great successes in availing more secondary education
places in the (so-called) underserved areas. Country wise the number of
Secondary Schools has increased from 1291 (government 828) in 2004 to
4102 (government 3283) in 2009. Some districts in 2004 had less than 3
schools (example Ngorongoro, Kiteto) Today almost all wards have a
Secondary School. Those Regions with less than 50 Secondary Schools in
7
DRAFT SEDP
2005, they all have more than 100 Schools in 2009. Some of those regions
are: Lindi 2 schools in 2005 to 117 Schools in 2009, Singida from 44 to
150, Tabora from 46 to 164, Rukwa from 46 to 103 Manyara from 46 to 123
and Mtwara from 50 to 136. Despite these successes, we face some
challenges, including:
- the quality of the infrastructures and School (site) plans,
- many “Schools” still have incomplete infrastructures,
- some parents do not take their children to School.
From January 2005 the School fees for Day students was reduced from Tsh.
40,000/= to 20,000/= (about USD 15) so that many parents would be able to
afford taking their children to School. This is still the fee today. The
government is expected to provide the topping up. In the same year (2005)
through SEDP the government was to sponsor 12,000 students joining
Secondary Schools each year and sustain that sponsorship for all the years
of their Secondary education.
The Government revenues collected through Schools fees is still on
the lower side because not all pupils are paying the due fees. Only about
75% of the expected fees is actually collected. Also the topping up has
not been done successfully. Schools have been forced to seek further
contributions from parents or go without certain school necessities.
Some schools have used this ‘gap’ as a chance to demand more from
parents through the students.
The scholarship programme has helped more than…….. Students. The
scholarship money however thinned out after the third Word Bank tranche and
from 2008 only Tsh……..was given for this fund.
Some successes have been registered in assisting students who have
disabilities (physical or mental). Facilities like braitie machines for the
blind were given to Schools. Albino students were given special
considerations on accommodation. Several Schools have started building
infrastructures which are friendly to those with physical disabilities.
However this work needs to be spread throughout all Schools. As many
8
DRAFT SEDP
students with disabilities show up, more Schools for them (inclusive or
otherwise) have to be built and be placed strategically in the Country.
c) Regarding quality
Schools have been using improved syllabus for O-level since 2005 and, those
for A-levels started being used this School year (2009/10) We have also had
regular in service training for science and mathematics teachers. However
there are many challenges in this area including the following:
- Pass rate at CSEE of Division I – III is still under 40% after 5 years of SEDP. It
was anticipated to increase to 70% by 2010! (from 36% of 2004),
- In service training has touched only a small portion of the many teachers who
need it especially because the syllabi have changed,
- Tas ………….has been sent to Schools for Teaching and Learning materials but
there is still a big cry for books and laboratory apparati and chemicals. We have
also sent………books to Schools which were given by USAID: some Partners
have also donated books for libraries either straight to Schools or through the
Tanzania Libraries Service Board, TLSB. However many Schools do not have
libraries. Only………libraries have been built by 2009 out of
the………..libraries planned through SEDP – I,
- A total of 15,200 teachers have been recruited and posted to government
Schools between 2005 and 2008. Also places for Teacher trainees have
increased both at degree and diploma level. Whereas there were 6282 Diploma
Teacher trainees in 2005, there are……….such trainees in 2009. Similarly
where as there were only one University training teachers in 2005 and
had…………..students, there are………University students doing education
courses in 2009. The challenge however is there are more schools than the
teachers we are producing each year. There is also the challenge of many
teacher-graduates not reporting to rural schools when they are posted there. As
a result the TPR in government scholls has risen to 1:49 in 2009! It was 1:26 in
2005.
d) Regarding management, there has been some interventions even before the
beginning of SEDP – I. Heads of Schools and their assistants were given short
9
DRAFT SEDP
trainings at the Agency for Development of Education Management ADEM. With
the opening of new Schools the number of Heads of Schools who have to be trained
on the ABC of school management has increased. Most of the schools lack these
leadership skills. The School boards like wise need to be capacity built.
Alongside activities to strengthen school leadership, the following areas were
also addressed to increase efficiency and responsiveness in the operation of
secondary education:
District Secondary Education Coordinators were appointed in 2007 to link
MoEVT and LGAs on Secondary Education issues. These officers worked
from the District Commissioners Office,
District/Council Secondary Education Officers, DSEO, were appointed in May
2009 to replace the Coordinators appointed in 2007. The office was further
strengthened by appointing one Senior Officer, the Academic Officer to work
with the DSEO on all issues regarding the operation of Secondary Schools in
each LGA,
A number of operational activities are now done by the LGAs. These include:
employment of teachers and their transfers, transfer of students, running of
schools, etc. However capacity needs to be strengthened at LGAs. MoEVT
head office also needs to strengthen their supervisory role.
The opening of many new Schools has also been a challenge to the Inspectorate
division of the Ministry. The number of Secondary Schools inspected per year
increased from……in 2005 to….in 2008. However this is only % of the total
number of Schools,
Efficient collection of data is the cornerstone of good planning. Secondary
education statistics are necessary for development at this level of education.
There has been great improvement in the collection of data however most data
are obtained with some difficulty hence the need to strengthen the MIS of the
Ministry
10
DRAFT SEDP
1.4 Justification for SEDP II
The Government recognizes that if these challenges are not addressed, they will
hinder the delivery of equitable and quality secondary education and the attainment
of the National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) targets,
MDGs and other national, regional and international commitments.
The demand for quality secondary education among Tanzanians is still high. There
is need to move forward to consolidate the gains of the first phase of SEDP and
plan for a next phase. Hence SEDP II.
2.0 The Secondary Education Development Plan Phase Two [2010 – 2014]
2.1The Highlights of the Secondary Education Development Plan (SEDP II)
The Secondary Education Development Plan Phase II (SEDP II) is a logical
and necessary sequel to SEDP I. It covers both levels of secondary
education the four year O-level cycle and the two year A-level cycle. It
captures strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and opportunities created by
SEDP I. It builds from ESDP, annual sector reviews, ongoing Local
Government Reforms, and consultative dialogues. It has five components,
which are:
a] The improvement of the Quality and Relevance of Secondary Education,
b] Enhancement of Access and Equity including consolidating what was planned
in SEDP-I in this area,
c] Improvement of the Teaching Force and Teaching Processes;
d] Improving Management Efficiency and Good Governance; and
e] Cross Cutting Issues.
The long term Development Objective of SEDP II is to build a high quality,
productive and adaptive labour force for the economy and the whole education
system in general that will contribute to the realization of the MKUKUTA goals.
11
DRAFT SEDP
2.2 The Plan Objectives
2.2.1 Improvement of the Quality and Relevance of Secondary Education
It is quite clear that, there is no problem with the demand for secondary education
in Tanzania. The secondary education has been able to triple enrolments in a span
of four years, from 432,599 in 2004 to 1,466,402 in 2009. During the same period
enrolment in the open and distance learning have increased from 16,801 to 35,804.
The number of secondary schools (both Government and Non Government) has
also increased from 1,291 in 2004 to 4,102 in 2009.
However, it is becoming increasingly evident that demand for secondary education
which led to increase in the construction of schools and consequent increase in the
number of pupils has created a bigger constraint on the provision of quality
secondary education. While in practice access precedes quality and we should be
proud of what has been achieved in this area, it is crucial that the two should be
tackled together if one is to get value for money invested in education. Therefore, a
priority is given to the improvement of the quality and relevance of education
provided.

2.2.2 Enhancement of Access and Equity
The most robust measures of access in education are the Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) and
Net Enrolment Ratio (NER), basically assessing the proportion of those who want
secondary education that can get it irrespective of age, and then that of those of appropriate
age who can get secondary education. Tanzania has been able to improve participation
rates from GER of 11.7% and NER of 10.1% in 2005 to 31.3% and 27.8% in 2009
respectively. While these are still below regional and sub Saharan figures, the progress has
been quite significant. However, in both indices, girls are lagging behind.
Similarly, the gender parity ratio has been declining from about 48% girls and 52% boys in
2004 to about 45% and 55% in 2009 respectively. In addition, the general performance of
girls in almost all subjects has not matched with that of their brothers though there are
cases where girls have out-performed boys. This plan will strive for harmonious and
equitable development across, gender, geographical lines, economic disparities and cultural
groups.

22
DRAFT SEDP
and who know how to impart it. We need Teachers who will inspire their pupils and be a
role model to their pupils in terms of knows-what, commitment to work and relationships.
These teachers should not only be available at school but be in the classrooms where the
students are.
The challenges facing the country today are that teachers are not available in the right
numbers, and that those who are available shy away from rural schools. Also there are
cases where teachers are in schools but, their classroom work (delivery, sharing and
relationship with learners) is not effective and efficient enough.

system and in the long run, it will show its multiplying effect in the country’s development
(socio-economically). Good governance is the cornerstone for effective utilisation of
human capacities towards enhancing efficiency and effectiveness in the provision of
secondary education. This level of education still has many managerial challenges. We

3.6 Budget Summary
The Government in collaboration with Development Partners, Non-State Actors and
communities will continue to mobilize resources to address the outlined SEDP II
components, strategies and targets. The Government reaffirms its commitment to
continue focusing resource allocation to secondary education sub sector which is one of
the national priority areas in MKUKUTA. As would be expected, quality improvement
and relevance takes the lion’s share, followed by the Access and Equity component.
Then comes improvement of the teaching force and processes.
The proposed SEDP cost projections are largely based on the calculated unit cost and
enrolment projections between 2010 and 2015.The projections have been calculated
using secondary school enrolment projections (BEST 2009), MTEF, tuition fees, direct
cost and personal emolument. The cost projections have been made taking into
consideration the following basic assumptions:
- The current domestic revenue collection of 15.9% of the GDP is
expected to increase to 18.3 % in 2011/12 and upward trend over
the plan period;
- Political will and stability will be maintained over the plan period;
- An inflation rate of 6.5% targeted in 2010 will be fluctuating but
remain in the single digit over the plan period;
- Selected national basic education sub-sector priorities will be fully
funded;
- The enrolment in secondary education is expected to increase up to
70% out of those passing PSLE by 2015;
- Though the GDP is expected to decline to 5.0% in 2009 due to
Global Economic Crisis but is expected to grow up to 7.5% in 2012
and continue to grow over the plan period;
- The Government commitment to allocate up to 25% of its overall
recurrent expenditure to Education Sector is met. Out of this total,
up to 15% has to be allocated to Basic Education;
40
DRAFT SEDP
- The National Population growth rate of 2.9% (2002 census) is
constant over the plan period;
- The real exchange rate is expected to follow the purchasing power
parity in the medium and long terms;
- Construction costs for classrooms and teachers’ houses with solar
panels include community contributions;
- Exchange rate used is Tshs. 1,300 per USD; and
- For the sake of computing Teacher Needs for Secondary Schools;
pupil/teacher subject ratio has been used taking into consideration
that a secondary school teacher teaches 2 specialized subjects.
The total programme is expected to cost Tshs. 1,054,044 Millions. Table Presents a
summary of the budget by components. The detailed costing of the programme
components and targets is given in Annex 4.2

Data on current staffing situation, as obtained from BEST, 2009 is as summarised in Table 7. Shortages were highlighted in Tables 3 and 4 earlier.

These figures give a ratio of 23:77 between degree and diploma holders or 17:83 between degree and the rest. This ratio is a variance with the requirement of the Education and Training Policy which called for diploma teachers to teach Form I and Form II, and degree holders to teach Forms III, IV, V and VI. The preponderance of diploma teachers in the system may indeed present ceiling effects on learning outcomes, and hence pass levels being mainly Division IV and Failures. Some countries today require that only graduates should teach in secondary schools, especially in key and technical subjects such as the sciences, mathematics, geography and foreign languages. The Tanzania situation is not going to help in the improvement of the quality of education. It has to change. It is therefore proposed that MoEVT workout a plan to reverse this situation using the TDMS model attached below. This plan has the following targets for correcting the imbalances:
End of Phase I in 2013. Achieve 25:75 Ratio (Degree and Diploma)In doing so, care will be taken of:-
(a) The move to make the Sciences compulsory for all O-Level pupils. The number of additional science periods need to be factored in.
(b) The expansion of A-Level, especially in the sciences will need more science teachers, and here, we could get those with Masters of Science degree for our big schools.
(c) In the socials, nature may take its course and rectify the imbalances and the shortages, due to the recent opening of more public and private teacher training institutions.
(d) As Diploma holders are phased out in upper forms, they could easily become primary school head teachers, which could boost academic leadership at that level greatly.
