Open learning is cheaper

Mmegi: Tau said recent developments at the Ministry of Education and Skills Development (MoESD) which saw 3, 000 teachers going for further studies this year is expensive. "Four years down the line this should be relegated to history, MoESD should really explore other options," he said. He said that the education sector has been neglected in Botswana, saying the lack of early childhood education has killed talent as children's academic abilities are not identified and nurtured at an early age.
