Information being received from DA structures in four education districts in Limpopo clearly shows that many schools have not been notified of textbook delivery today.

Many of the schools being monitored by DA structures are closed, with no one present at the school. In the Polokwane district, for instance, delivery trucks arrived at Tom Naudé High School but had to be turned away because no one was notified by the Department that books were arriving.

The majority of the schools monitored this morning had received no books at all. In the Waterberg district, for instance, Leseding High School, Mokolo Primary, Mahlasedi Primary and Meetsetshehla Primary had no books as of 11am.

It also appears that many of the schools that are receiving books are only getting incomplete orders, with many core textbooks outstanding.

In Blouberg, in the Capricorn district, Kola Leboho Secondary Grade 10s only received life sciences and agricultural science textbooks.

Mmatsele Secondary School in the Capricorn district has also received an incomplete order of textbooks.

In Vhembe district, Thohoyandou Secondary had received no new curriculum books for over 500 learners by 11am this morning.

The DA will provide a full report of info coming in from the districts at 1pm today during a press conference at Lotanang Primary in Seshego outside Polokwane.
