DA lobbies against cancellation of third term school holidays

The DA is calling on the Department of Basic Education to revoke its proposal to remove the October school holidays from the academic calendar.– which were scheduled to take place from 4-8 October – to catch up on the lost curriculum.

The Suid-Afrikaanse Onderwysers Unie said; “it was learnt that the DBE intends to cancel the October school holiday to compensate for the five school days that were lost as a result of the earlier closure for the winter holidays”. The union said instead of having the October holidays, learners will use the Heritage Day long weekend as a separation of the third and fourth terms.

The DA’s shadow minister for education, Baxolile Nodada, said the DBE should instead implement strategies to catch up on lost time and not just cancel the learners’ holidays.
