SADTU meetings disrupt schooling
23 January 2018
The DA is calling upon the Gauteng Department of Education MEC, Panyaza Lesufi to crack the whip against the South African Democratic Teachers Union (SADTU) for abandoning learners to attend union meetings during school hours.
It was disturbing to see learners leaving school at around 11:00 am as the teachers were expected to attend the SADTU mass meeting today at 12:00 pm.
See photos here and here of Finetown Secondary School learners in Ennerdale South, leaving school early due to SADTU the meeting.
This is becoming a norm in schools where SADTU dominates and insists that their meetings be held during school hours.
