By A Correspondent- Thanks to the teachers. Three clear points for consideration in order to move forward in education,
1 Teachers’ welfare is of paramount importance and therefore should be given the attention it deserves by its employer;
2. Infrastructure, topping the list, classrooms and Education Information Communication Technology; and
3. Making the school environment congenial for learning under COVID-19 , How?
3.1.Ensuring fast internet connectivity from Ministry of Education Head Office to each School to facilitate virtual learning;
3.2 Ensuring treatment for COVID-19 is availed to all needing it.
4.0 An Appeal on the Way Forward
4.1 Books could be written on those naturally seen as responsible for the children’s learning. Resources for such activities could be availed overnight.However that wont bring the Zimbabwen education system and economy on the right path.
4.2 We will all be happy if those brains are used to give teachers, learners and parents hope if the next conversation is on the plan and implementation schedule of the three areas teachers have indicated. Without doubt, the citizenry from all over will descend and make contributions to the plan and implementation schedule to ensure the children of Zimbabwe and their resilient and hard- working teachers are back to work with or without COVID-19
4.3 UNITED IN THE EDUCATION OF OUR CHILDREN WE STAND, DIVIDED Zimbabwean Children, Families, Communities, Society and Economy FALL. It is important to remember teachers are staying behind in the face of invitation by other countries valuing their hard earned education.
