Kaya 959 Point of View with Phemelo Motene

The South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) has expressed concern that many primary schools around South Africa still plan to have rotational timetables next year. The arrangement means that children will be going to school every second day or every second week. To help us determine whether or not this is a good idea, Nkosana Dolopi, SADTU Deputy General Secretary and Professor Tabane Ramodungoana, Chair of the Psychology of Education Department at UNISA are in conversation with us.
