The KZN Department of Education will do everything in its power to ensure that our learners are not adversely affected by the loss of teaching and learning time due to the strike. In this regard we will consult with teacher unions once the strike is over. We appeal to learners not to regard the time away from school as a holiday but to make use of it to study and prepare for the examinations.

:: Urgent Media Statement
06 June 2007
Due to the ongoing strike action the environment at our schools, ABET centres and FET colleges is not conducive to writing examinations. Therefore the Department of Education in KZN has issued instructions to suspend all examinations until after the conclusion of the strike. We reassure our learners and parents at our schools, ABET centres and FET colleges that learners will be given an opportunity to write their examinations under normal circumstances. Nobody needs to fear that their chances to succeed will be jeopardised by the current strike action.

Regarding the safety of our learners and teachers, which is of prime concern to the Department, the Head of Department has delegated the power to close schools to principals as an interim measure for the duration of the strike. All principals must exercise their discretion in consultation with school governing bodies, taking into account the safety and security of their learners and teachers and inform the Head of Department in writing of their decision.

The Department is monitoring the ongoing strike very closely.
