American Sign Language Causing Problems In Botswana

Speaking to The Monitor, BoAD secretary, Boitumela Tshotlego said, they want the right policy that will be approved by cabinet because the foreign sign languages that the Ministry of Education Skills and Development (MOESD) is teaching them is causing the failure of many students.

“I am speaking as a deaf and on behalf of the deaf as their leader, we want our students to have better education not to go to school and fail and then go sit at home again, our rights should not be violated”, said Tshotlego.
