Submitted by PCR Admin on Fri, 08/27/2010 - 19:25

125 learners picketed outside the Western Cape Education department yesterday 25 August 2010. The learners demanded that their teachers be returned to school and called for the government to do more to negotiate a settlement with the public service unions. Equal Education delivered a memorandum to the Western Cape Department of Education. The memorandum was received by Paul Boughey who promised that the department was taking measures to offset the negative effect of the public sector strike on education.

Equal Education will be picketing outside Western Cape Education Department calling for teaching and learning to resume in schools.

Hundreds of Equal Education (EE) members will be picketing outside the Western Cape Department of Education, calling on government to bring their teachers back to schools by offering them an 8.6 percent wage increase and R1000 housing subsidy. It has been more than a week since teacher unions decided to go on strike and the government has not been able to negotiate effectively with public service workers.

In recognition of this, Equal Education will be picketing today, 25 August 2010 at 14:30 pm- 16:00 pm outside the WCED Building on Parliament Street.

Equal Education believes that the demands of workers and teachers are reasonable as outlined in our press release dated 13 August 2010. We call on government to engage seriously and urgently with all public service unions.
