Parents advised on pre-schools

According to an official at the Department of Pre and Primary Education at the Ministry of Education, Grace Seetso, parents often get to sign contracts with schools under policy terms, which they are not familiar with, and this later results in conflicts.

Schools opened last week with some parents taking their children to preschools for the first time. In an interview with Mmegi on advice for such parents, Seetso stated that a pre school may not be a place where formal education is imparted but it is definitely a place where children have their first taste of independence.
