Wednesday, September 01, 2010

GOODHOPE: President of the Botswana Secondary Teachers Union (BOSETU) Shandukani Hlabano said yesterday that teachers have exercised restrain for a long time over their demands for better pay but now their patience is running out. "Our patience is stretched to breaking point.

Hlabano said that teachers' fortunes have changed after they were moved to the Department of Public Service Management (DPSM) from Teaching Service Management by the new Public Service Act.
