‘Shortage arises from unsuitable candidates teaching subjects’

KLANG: Retired school teacher Dr Devi Arumugam says the various problems plaguing the national education system was one of the factors behind a shortage of teachers for certain subjects.

Devi, who took optional retirement eight years ago after 28 years of service, said the lack of efficacy in the education system had paved a path for unsuitable candidates being trained to teach these subjects.
