Pretoria - One South Africa leader Mmusi Maimane has declared he is ready to meet the Department of Basic Education in court again regarding the reopening of schools.
“These organisations have threatened teachers and learners; others have gone to court and failed to stop the schools reopening, and are now resorting to threats and disruptions to achieve their intended goals,” it said.“These platforms are appropriate avenues to register their concerns and complaints and not our centres of learning and development. The unfolding political ballgame does not belong in schools.
She said some of the organisations had lost in court and were resorting to disruptive behaviour. “We are disappointed and dismayed that these organisations have neglected to recognise the efforts of the department in providing alternatives for parents who, out of well-founded anxiety and fear, wish not to return their children to school.
However, Maimane said: “If the department feels strongly that fighting for the right to life is a political issue and wants to take us to court, well, I look forward to meeting them in court.
