Good day


To whom it may concern i have tried everything to get help.


Is grade R part of public schools? or does it fall under ecd as grades rr and rrr? 


Reason for asking is my principal refused us as grade R teachers to adhere to the lockdown of schools as announced by President Cyril. 


He says grade r does not fall under the lockdown regulations because it only applies to grades 1 to 12.


How true is this and can i be forced to go to work? Does my life not matter my health and safety? Am i only a worker to generate a income of school fees ? Why is grade 1 to 12 high risk but grade r is not?  Why am i being threatened with my job of mr President said all schools? I am a department of education employee but i must work? 


Kind regards
