Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Impact of Covid-19: Education – Return to School and School Transport (Resumed)

Mr. Alan Mongey:

School leaders have absolutely no problem in being held to that level of accountability. We shoulder that on a daily basis in any other year. The Deputy is correct that we need to be given the resources to meet that level of accountability. Policies, etc., are being developed centrally by the education partners, including the Department, but their implementation is going to be challenging and significant in schools and we need all the support we can get in that regard.
