*Teachers Want First Term Cancelled* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?jf Teachers have implored the government to cancel the 2021 First Term so that there is adequate time to prepare infrastructure ahead of the Second Term. Progressive Teachers’ Union of Zimbabwe (PTUZ) president Takavafira said schools are not ready to offer a safe environment for teachers and pupils amid the COVID-19 pandemic and this necessitates the complete cancellation of the First Term.

Meanwhile, Private Schools Association of Zimbabwe secretary-general, Loice Magweba, said they will ask the government to allow schools with the capacity to reopen for the First Term. This comes after the government last week indefinitely postponed the reopening of schools for the First Term, which was due to start tomorrow. *More: Sunday News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
