Unions urged to be more vocal on education

Speaking at the official opening of a three-day workshop for Botswana Teachers Union (BTU), Botswana Sector of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU) and Trainers and Allied Workers Union (TAWU), Eringu said the call was not for the unions to cause havoc, but for them to make their voices heard, as educators entrusted with the responsibility of imparting knowledge.

He explained that all these unions should realise and understand that circumstances have changed and there has been an increasing need for concerted efforts for teachers and other education workers to identify common areas, and develop common strategy.
