SADTU had a healthy relationship with the Department and engaged thoroughly. An issue that SADTU felt needed to be resolved was that of the removal of a certain Chief Director (this was also highlighted during our previous visit). The union was satisfied with the training conducted by the Department for teachers and was assured that there would be further training workshops for those who had missed out previously. SADTU was also in the process of doing its own verification of the delivery of LTSM to all schools.
