Education Union Blasts Govt For Saying Parents Are Responsible For Paying ECD Teachers

The National Education Union of Zimbabwe (NEUZ) has criticised Government for saying that parents will be responsible for paying Early Childhood Development (ECD) teachers’ salaries.

The organisation’s secretary-general Mathias Guchutu said Government should have consulted parents and hence the decision should be reversed. Said Guchutu:

The government should have consulted widely both parents, unions and its sister ministry of Labour. As a union, we are battling against high level of retrenchments of ECD teachers who were left in the cold many years ago and were being unceremoniously replaced every term by government paid ECD teachers. The issue should be urgently revisited. Teachers’ colleges had recruited and heavily invested in ECD training. Some universities were now offering highly subscribed degrees in ECD training and all of a sudden the government plays ‘reverse jive’ and literally dumps the process.
