Teachers warned over private lessons
Mashonaland West Bureau
Defiant teachers and parents have been warned against exposing children to Covid-19 through conducting private lessons.
Zimbabwe is presently on Level Four lockdown following a rapid surge in Covid-19 cases across the country, which hit over 1 000 for two days.
Deaths are also mounting, making a strong case for citizens to observe the lockdown measures.
But with schools closed to minimise the spread of Covid-19, some teachers are conducting private lessons, so as to make money, but without due regard to the law.
Primary and Secondary Education Ministry’s director of communications and advocacy, Mr Taungana Ndoro yesterday warned teachers and parents against exposing children to the deadly coronavirus.
