Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga says schools are ready for learners’ full-time return to classrooms. She says the scrapping of the rotational timetable, which was implemented due to the COVID19 pandemic in 2020, had already been gazetted.

Motshekga says schools are ready for learners’ full-time return to classrooms

Cabinet’s announcement followed a meeting between the President’s Co-ordinating Council and the National Coronavirus Command Council.“The first step towards addressing the crisis of learning is to prevent further disruptions in schools and prevent other learning losses when dealing with health and safety issues in our schools. The second step will be to introduce measures to catch-up on the time lost as well as the teaching time lost.

Education Expert, Professor Sarah Gravett, has welcomed the announcement that schools are prepared for learners’ full-time return to classrooms from today.“I do think it is great news that all our children are back to school every day. The last two years have been very difficult and devastating for learning, particularly, in the early years of schooling where it is very clear that there was research conducted that there was significant learning loss.

“At this stage, it’s all systems go and no school has indicated that they will not be able to return to the normal timetabling model. Our district offices will nevertheless monitor and access the return of all learners tomorrow as well as indicate if any major changes are reported. Pharmaceutical interventions will remain in place in all schools. Compulsory screening will continue and the implementation of SOP will be closely monitored.

Schools are not ready o maka mme!

Not true

The current system is obsolete. It's function is to keep children busy but not preparing them for real life after 12 years of distraction. We have no leaders in the MYANC. We need to change the education system to empower a black child.
