THS the implemention of the 'Teacher Draft' program (Teacher Draft)
View Info Slide
Info Slide
The 'Teacher Draft' program would require university graduates from all disciplines, who finish in the top 5% of their cohort, to be employed and teach at a primary or secondary school in a low socio economic area in the country they went to university in, for at least 2 years after graduation. (In all other respects, this functions similarly to regular employment.)
