National Professional Teachers’ Organisation of South Africa in the Western Cape has expressed disappointment over the expected cut of over 2 400 teaching posts in the province.Naptosa Provincial Head Riedwaan Ahmed says the intended cuts will severely impact the quality of education.
Ahmed says, “We are aware already that we have overcrowded classrooms and the projected teacher-to-learner ratio of 1/36.7 in our view does not in reality translate into the classroom.” “So, therefore, to cut further posts at this stage within education will place a further burden on the education system. Also keeping in mind for example that our educators are already in a challenging situation with overcrowded classrooms and the well-being of educators for us is also very important,” he adds.“For contract educators, their contracts will not be renewed with effect from the 1st of January 2025, which means that they will be unemployed and so that is a challenge for Naptosa.
