Madhi said all primary and high school pupils should be attending lessons daily. They can, he said, get infected whether they are at home or school.
"Children can scrum and tackle each other in rugby on the sports field but in the classroom they may not come closer than one metre of each other. It doesn't make sense as the core business of a school is academics," he said. Anthea Cereseto, CEO of the Governing Body Foundation, said:"I don't believe attending school on alternate days is good for children because they need routine and consistency. Reading and maths need daily consistent reinforcement."
Umsangano nje, they not a professional medical body, they should rather seek comments and not decide out of their own Cadre mentality
What about teachers and the parents. Those kids don't teach themselves.
Life really must go on.
My kid is in primary school and has been back full time since the year started
Fuck government. I lost business opportunity because of this nonsense covid-19.
I thought they do already. Ey govt
I think we must not compare public school with private school as we all know that majority of our public school are over crowded.department must come with better solution for overcrowded classes and teachers must be vaccinated first.lets not rush this we may lose teachers.
Before vaccination or after vaccination, I'm just asking? All life matters.
UCT
Our kids need to be in school daily. They have lost so much academic work, parents are not coping.
So social distancing will be the thing of the past
According to the dept teachers are immune to the virus and we must just keep going yet at the dept offices they are not working full time. It’s on a rotational basis. Teachers should also be vaccinated Bt can’t even register
There is no such thing of dying from covid or having it. Our kids are not concentrate at school work any more. Bring the full time back. Stop this alternative nonsense.
Nix not my child
Who prove that, can't prioritize to give them vaccine because they are the future before taking that direction.
Their way of reducing the public wage bill...
Oh my gosh there are still kids who are not at school full time.
Bathong! My nieces have been going to school everyday, they have just got back from school holidays... Government hates its people... So other kids have been idling... Nee maan vokof
They have started again
Nka screamer gore🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's not about kids, it's about teachers will they accept it? Never
Terrible, terrible idea🙄
Only now...
Please do, our kids really disadvantaged by this
So that they can go to school, take virus from their fellow learners and bring it home to wipe off their parents and other adult members of their families? Angie and her crew are best thinkers of our modern world. 🤔
ThaCido88 your department 😳😳😳 some people mare. 🤷🏿♂️
Bout time
All private schools are in full swing .it is only the public schools that are forced to adhere by DBE_SA and their 60 kids per classroom that rob kids of an education! Shame on you! Should have had less corruption and more attention to detail for our youth! WeWantOurCountryBack
Ya, I agree dis thing of alternating days and weekly attendance doesn’t work.
It is the right thing to do. They should also include high school pupils as well. I don't think there is much difference between the two.
do they live in a vaccum while not at school? please send children to school.
Well my daughter's school started with 100% attendance for foundation phase from 15 Feb... Then mid-march, all other grades came in everyday. N ooohh it's a public school. N so far no cases reported.. So yea primary learners must just go back full time
I’m so confused😩 have all kids not been attending school kante?
Lesufi Imihlola who teaches those kids or what, our lives and that of our families don't matter? I can't believe you even retweeting this!!! 😠
It has always been not about them but grannies they are staying with which they put at risk.
You don’t say.
What does that spells ? They must infect each other and bring the infection to vulnerable people ?
My younger brothers school they allowed a child who tested positive to Covid and they tested all students without informing us now my bro is traumatized,What if he is positive yena ,What if he infected us all ,That time he is in grade 12
Plus we've had enough of watching cartoons and them finishing all the food
After 2 months later.We are very sorry this virus is now killing our children
Are kids immune to this virus?
The department should have taken this decision long ago at least they can see that their rotational attending dates don't help at all...learners are suffering academically more than they did in 2019 before Covid-19
And what about us comorbid teachers? Oh I forgot, our lives don't matter!
Lesufi For me. I will lyk 2 see that since I'm paying ful school fees & transport. Nx!😩 But my question is are the children immune or they can be carries who can transmit it between families. We know for the fact that social distancing may exist in school but not before or after school
They’ve introduced a new way of getting things done based on a fake pandemic. The new part time system must continue.
Twitter will bash the Ed Dep on this but once a decision is make, their kids will attend full time🤧
K
Lesufi The sad reality is most private schools are operating full time. Our government is not leading but following.
Lesufi OK ai
The next batch that should be vaccinated is educators. Then come to a resolution.
Depending on the number of children in the class, some public schools have actually been attending full time
Lesufi Good move
Kid's must attend everyday! I don't understand the rationale of kid's not going to school everyday, they r safer there!
Guess those PS pupils gonna be taught by natural immune teachers, come on there's no logic
I agree with that. Children are now confused when are they going to school. Sometimes it's in the morning sometimes afternoon, it's a mess.
But we been at school teaching thina.
But they will come to parents who are likely to die of COVID-19 can we not be myopic in thinking.
And the teachers? Are they exempt from covid infection from children?
And the reports internationally of kids absolutely dying and many of them having long term chronic symptoms ?
