This was announced by Gauteng education MEC Panyaza Lesufi while giving an update on the first day of schools.

Lesufi said of the 2,084 schools in the province there were only nine schools that did not open as a result of vandalism and inadequate water and sanitation conditions.

Lesufi said all schools received personal protective equipment but some schools claimed that they had shortages, something that was escalated to the department. Lesufi appealed to teachers with underlying conditions to comply with the guidelines and contact the school principal and district for clarity on whether their applications had been approved and not just to stay away.
