The basic education department said in a statement on Sunday evening that while schools would still reopen on Monday with the return of school management teams, teachers and nonteaching staff, pupils will now return to school next Monday. The phased reopening will see only grade 12s and grade 7s return for now.

Motshekga caused mass confusion after postponing a critical briefing on Sunday evening, at which she was set to give details on the school year. The briefing will now take place on Monday. "Given these preparations, and the enormous effort put in by teachers and nonteaching staff alike, it would be unfair to delay all schools from reopening," she said.
