Phase Three: Is when the rest of high school learners will go to school and in primary, Grades Three, Four and Five will return to schools.
Phase Four: classrooms will be used up due to social distancing. In this phase, Grade One and Two learners will return to class.
Phase Five: By this point, winter should be over for ECD classes to return to school.
Thabela said learners at schools like Prince Edward and Girls High School that are being used as quarantine centres would have to make a compromise when the second term starts.
