The National Association of School Governing Bodies is criticising the Mpumalanga department of education’s return of budgeted funds to the Treasury. It said the department returned R623 million to the Treasury while the province has an infrastructure development backlog. The association’s general secretary Matakanye Matakanye Dept under fire for ‘returning funds’ said: “We call upon the department to provide school services instead of underspending or returning money to the treasurer. If it happens again the premier must act against the department.”
Later the department disputed that, saying only three schools solely used pit latrine. The department has also been criticised by organisations representing disabled people for failing to build a school for disabled pupils promised 13 years ago.The DA in Mpumalanga released a statement this week lambasting the department for returning money to the treasury, while it was struggling to complete Mkhondo Boarding School and rebuild Sidlamafa Secondary School in Nkomazi.
