Temporary Eastern Cape teachers paid


The Eastern Cape department of education says teachers, who planned to take the department to court for non-payment, have been paid.

Spokesperson, Loyiso Pulumani says the application by 25 temporary teachers was due to be heard in the Grahamstown High Court on Friday, but the matter was heard in chambers and adjourned.

He says all but two of them were paid.

Pulumani says the two teachers yet to be paid, had outstanding authorisation forms from their district office. They should have their money by Monday morning.

The teachers, from six schools in Grahamstown, opted to take the department to court after it failed to pay their salaries. They were each owed between R36,000 and R90,000.
