Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga says the scrapping of the rotational timetable, which was implemented in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, has already been gazetted.
The move came after last month’s Cabinet decision to end rotational learning with immediate effect and to remove social distancing measures.Meanwhile, the National Teachers’ Union has welcomed the decision for learners to return to school on the full teaching timetables.The union’s acting president Sibusiso Malinga says while they support the decision, they are concerned about overcrowding.
Malinga says, “Teachers cannot teach if classes are overcrowded. We have been told that the social distance has been reduced from 1 metre to half a metre. We are risking the lives of our learners as well as teachers because the President has not yet announced that RSA is now a corona-free country. We are afraid that this might lead to an outbreak as well.”
