Student teachers receive allowances, finally :: Mmegi Online

About 200 Molepolole College of Education student teachers yesterday commenced their teaching practice at various schools around the country, after a delay caused by late crediting of allowances by government.

The teaching practice involves the attachment of the student teachers to public schools around the country, as part of their curriculum. The students’ colleagues at Tonota College of Education as well as their self-sponsored peers started their teaching practice on April 15, 2016.

Yesterday, Ministry of Education and Skills Development (MoESD) spokesperson, Silas Sehularo confirmed that the student teachers had reported for teaching practice. He, however, denied that the delay in the processing of their allowances was caused by late submission of students’ names to the Department of Tertiary Education Financing (DTEF).
