The national department of basic education has given KwaZulu-Natal schools the thumbs up to return to school on Monday but unions are adamant they are not ready.

However, SA Democratic Teachers Union and National Teachers Union members in Mtubatuba aren’t satisfied with the claims that pupils and members of staff are ready to return to school.

“We don’t think the schools should be opened because sanitation hasn't been fixed. Some of the schools still use pit toilets, the tanks aren’t filled with water, this is why we aren’t happy,” said Nene.
