Johannesburg – Teachers’ unions are confident Cabinet will announce a three-week closure of schools on Thursday following their meeting with Basic Education Deputy Minister Reginah Mhaule about their

demand that schools should be closed until the peak of the pandemic has passed.

Manuel and Maluleke said the infections would continue to rise if teachers and learners remained in school. In her presentation, Motshekga admitted conflicting views were rampant among stakeholders in education, and that bodies such as school governing bodies and the South African Human Rights Commission were in favour of the reopening of schools, but teachers unions were adamant with their demand.
