Deputy Minister Thembi Siweya will visit two identified schools in Tshwane South District, Mamelodi West in the Gauteng Province to conduct the Back to School Campaign and assess state of readiness for the reopening of schools. The Back to School campaign is a government initiative which is aimed at encouraging all stakeholders to participate in promoting teaching and learning at schools.

As part of the visit, the Deputy Minister will engage with the district, school management, teachers, parents, school governing body, civil society, and traditional leadership. We view this visit as an important intervention in promoting and motivating learners to stay in schools.
