According to reports, teachers are baffled by the pressure being applied on them to attend the workshops, while being forced to pay from their meagre salaries.

Some teachers, who spoke to NewsDay, said they were being threatened by school heads to attend the meetings, with the latest being lined up for Gwanda in Matabeleland South province.

The teachers also expressed concern that despite being seriously underpaid, Zanu PF, through Teachers4ED, was frog-marching them to attend such “useless” events against their will. “We struggle to survive due to very poor wages that the government is paying us and it is grossly unfair and a serious violation of our rights for the school heads to be forcing us to attend such events, let alone forcing us to part with such an amount towards the useless programmes,” one of the teachers said. 🔗
