This comes after minister of basic education Angie Motshekga announced on Tuesday that teachers will be expected back at school on Monday. The Sadtu Northern Cape said the education department in that province was not ready to open schools. This delay will have an impact on the re-opening for Grade 12 and 7 pupils on June 1.
"We trust that the MEC will pronounce the position of the province that will be in the best interest for everyone. As Sadtu we are not opposed to the re-opening of schools and our teachers are keen to go back to work. However the department had the obligation to ensure that it's employees and the learners return to hygienic and safe schools," Nqumashe said.
