R700 each for meals for 124 newly promoted teachers … this is what the Waterberg District in Limpopo is asking mostly poor schools to fork out for school management staff (SMT) to attend an induction workshop. The district issued a letter to schools on 13 February inviting newly appointed heads of department, deputy principals and principals to attend workshops at Hoërskool Nylstroom and Lephalale Primary School from 19 to 21 February and 26 to 28 February, respectively. Schools were asked to pay an amount of R700 by Tuesday to cover the cost of breakfast and lunch for each member for three days. The team debated whether this is an appropriate request by the district or not.
