The fact that TSC intends to “tether” teachers in school during weekends and holidays raises many questions. Even more disturbing is TSC’s intention to relegate co–curricular activities to the periphery - to be conducted on weekends and school holidays. This means that the new curriculum places co–curricular activities at the centre of the teaching–learning process. It beats logic for TSC to fight holiday tuition and then turn around and make teachers stay in school during weekends and school holidays. Ideally, primary school children are supposed to be 15 years old and below.
