The National Professional Teachers’ Organisation of South Africa (NAPTOSA) says that while they do understand the frustrations regarding the National Recovery Plan, they still believe that any stay away by learners at this stage will simply worsen the problem.
“NAPTOSA’s National Executive Committee has already expressed serious concerns about the desperate ways in which the Recovery Plans are being implemented,” says President of NAPTOSA, Dave Balt.
He says teachers are as frustrated as the learners and any further stay-away will simply make things worse.
“What is needed now is a huge and concentrated effort, by all concerned to get education back on track, and make up for all the time lost because of the industrial action,” says Balt.
He added that NAPTOSA has given a commitment that each teacher will make certain that each child in his or her care will have reached the required levels and outcomes by the end of the year.
