The Council of Education Ministers says it will go to court if necessary to stop people 'hellbent on obstructing schooling'.The Council of Education Ministers , led by basic education minister Angie Motshekga, on Friday condemned ongoing attempts by political and civic organisations to disrupt learning at some schools around the country.

"Many schools have made a concerted effort to prepare adequate sanitation, health and safety measures to welcome back the pupils." Motshekga said:"The CEM appeals to all aggrieved political and civic organisations to rather engage with their political counterparts and authorities at their usual platforms. These platforms are appropriate avenues to register their concerns and complaints, and not our centres of learning and development. The unfolding political ballgame does not belong in schools.

“We are disappointed and dismayed that these organisations have neglected to recognise the efforts by the department in providing alternatives for parents who, out of well-founded anxiety and fear, wish not to return their children to school.
