COSATU fully behind SADTU’s decision to reject ANA in its current form
The Congress of South African Trade Unions has noted that the 4th ANC National General Council has called on the department of Basic Education to go ahead with the implementation of the Annual National Assessment {ANA} .
This despite the fact that our affiliate SADTU and the entire organised labour in the sector, have made it known, to the department and all stakeholders, that ANA in its current form is not in the best interests of learners and will not help improve the quality of education.
Cosatu is fully behind SADTU in opposing the implementation of ANA in its current form.
Teachers have made it very clear that they are not opposed to the assessments as a matter of principle but they find the current system unworkable and inadequate.
