CAPE TOWN - Some teachers at a Manenberg primary school are refusing to return to work because the school was not closed after a colleague tested positive for COVID-19.

The Western Cape Education Department's protocol states a school may be partially or fully closed for disinfecting.

She said she did not feel safe returning as it was not closed for the entire building to be disinfected. The area where the COVID-19 positive teacher worked has been decontaminated this week and classes have been moved.
