The Citizen reports that the Cosatu-affiliated SA Democratic Teachers’ Union (Sadtu) in Mpumalanga says it is prepared to fight tooth and nail to oppose the proposed teacher job cuts announced recently by the province’s authorities.
Labour federation Cosatu has also vowed to mobilise in support of the union’s fight against the decision by the provincial education department to cut teacher posts from 32,637 to 31,206. The union has planned a protest march to the department’s offices in Mbombela on Thursday. The march is a culmination of lunchtime pickets, which have been taking place in district offices since last week.
