Teacher’s union have reportedly proposed that matrics return to school on August 17, and that other grades return on a later date, subject to the speciation of the novel coronavirus. According to a Sunday Times report, the resolution by the country’s five unions that schools amid a peak in COVID-19 infections was included in a document Basic Education Minister Angie tabled at a meeting with the CEM on Saturday.
While the unions put forward that matrics should return on August 17, they also proposed the defination of ”different modes to help them while they are at home”. Department of Basic Education spokesperson Elijah Mhlanga told News24 on Sunday that Angie was still locked in a Cabinet meeting following her meeting with the CEM on Saturday.
Elijah said there was no indication when a decision would be announced because meeting swere still underway. The unions also submitted to Angie that the department should provide teachers with ”the essential tools to work from home and prepare work for the reopening of schools and return of learners”, according to the Sunday Times report.
They reportedly resolved that the department engage with its counterpart, the Department of Higher Education, to consider late registration for first-year tertiary students, and implement innovative ways to feed pupils who relied on the school feeding programme. News24 reported on Friday that, while unions and principal associations were calling for a complete lockdown, the Federation of Governing Bodies of South Africa Schools (Fedsas) was of the view there was no need for shutdown.
Fedsas was among the stakeholders who met with Angie on Thursdcay as part of her series of consultations in the sector. The federation CEO, Paul Colditz, told News24 it was of the view there was no need for a lockdown because no one knew when the peak would end. ”Nobody knows when the peak will be ending. It can be very late this year, it can be next year and it can be up untill a point when we have a vaccine. We can’t help plan based on an uncertainty,” Paul said.
The South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) was among those that supposed pupils return to school, despite the COVID-19 pandemic. In a statement released on Wenesday, the SAHRC said it supported Unicef’s position that pupils return to schools as soon as possible because ”evidence points to harm being done to children by not being in school”.
