BGSCE results: a sad reality

The Monitor: The Botswana Sectors of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU) president, Shandukani Hlabano, summed up the results as 'a sad reality'. He explained the results through historical problems facing teachers, mainly levels of operation, and recently hours of work. Teachers want their salaries reviewed. Of late the profession has been categorised within the eight-hour working period, much to teachers' chagrin. "The ministry saw overtime as the solution but first of all, there is need to establish how many hours the profession needs to deliver a wholesome education before discussing overtime," he said.
