What is ETeMS?

ETeMS has been proposed as an urgent interim measure to ensure that teachers of mathematics and science (MST) will have basic capacity to use English as the medium of instruction. Bearing in mind the limited duration of interaction, ETeMS is not to be regarded as a complete language development course, but rather, one of several support mechanisms introduced by the Ministry of Education to encourage the MST to further develop their English language competence to a level that will engender optimal performance in and outside the classroom.

The overall aim of ETeMS...

To enhance the English language skills of Mathematics and Science teachers to enable them to reach effectively using English as the medium of instruction.
