Teachers' tit-for-tat hurting students

The teachers are refusing to teach the topics that were supposed to have been covered in the past eight weeks they were out on strike.

According to Botswana Secondary Teachers Union (BOSETU) chief negotiator Tobokani Rari, in the teaching profession when a term starts teachers make a plan in what is called Scheme of Work to indicate what they will be doing the whole term. This includes topics that will be covered per week and activities like monthly tests and end-of-term examinations.
