This was a fear expressed on Wednesday by Western Cape Education Department spokesperson Bronagh Hammond.
Learners have been at home for the past four weeks after the announcement by President Cyril Ramaphosa on 27 June that South Africa was moving to Level 4 lockdown.
Hammond said the department was monitoring unrest in the taxi industry and its effects on public transport.
“Our schools will reopen next week. However, if public transport continues to be affected, learners and some educators will be affected, especially learners who attend what we call commuter schools.
“This is extremely sad and concerning and we hope that it will be resolved soon so that our children can continue learning,” said Hammond.
