GSS Launches 'Smooth' Double Shift

He says they had about two years to work on preparations for the double shift. "Actually, we were supposed to be amongst the first schools piloting the project two years ago and we prepared ourselves then," he pointed out. He says that because they have students enrolled with the Botswana College of Distance and Open Learning (BOCODOL), which starts at around 5pm, they requested the ministry to delay rolling out double shift at their school.

"So we formed a double shift committee, which drafted the guidelines of how the project should be run in the school way before the official guidelines were released by the ministry in 2007," he said.
