Panyaza Lesufi die MEC vir onderwys in Gauteng stel voor dat een skoolhoof na twee of drie skole moet kyk. Die vraag ontstaan of skole se akademiese standaard met die besluit gaan styg en of die standaard gaan daal? Principals could be put in charge of more than one school - that is if Gauteng education MEC Panyaza Lesufi has his way. This is only one of the drastic and far-reaching changes on the cards in Gauteng. The proposal could see one principal put in charge of two to three schools. Lesufi announced the proposal before the Gauteng legislatures portfolio committee on education in Tembisa, east of Johannesburg, on Tuesday night. But the plan, which is still in its early stages, is yet to undergo extensive consultation. During his address, Lesufi questioned why one principal could not oversee operations at multiple schools - if that could help to transfer skills from well-resourced schools to under-resourced ones. Lesufis spokesman, Phumla Sekhonyane, said the proposal should not be understood to be a call for social engineering of sorts, with teachers from well-resourced schools uprooted to work in dysfunctional and poorly resourced ones. She said, on the contrary, the move was intended to bridge the inequality gap between schools of vastly different financial means as well as performance. But questions remain about the practicality of the plan.timeslive.co.za/thetimes/2014/07/17/one-principal-three-schools
