HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS — TEACHING POSITIONS IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS
I have a supplementary question. Is it or is it not the case that the so-called retraining is just a two-day course during the school holidays, and just one day shadowing a primary teacher? Dr E. CONSTABLE

I understand that the program will begin during the school holidays. I thought it lasted up to a week, but it may well be less than that. That retraining will continue during the fourth term in preparation for the beginning of the next school year.
