Mangwe DEO speaks out on Makuzeze School fiasco

THE district education officer for Mangwe district, Headman Mpofu, has insisted the three Makuzeze Primary School teachers transferred at the end of last year leave the school amid a raging feud between parents and the acting school headmistress over their redeployment.

Mpofu yesterday told NewsDay that he had received transfer letters of the three teachers Lieto Dube, Sindiso Ncube and Nontokozo Denga (neé Mpofu) and “the issue of their redeployment could not be debated since the decision was from the Ministry of Education”.

“I do not know what the fuss that has been created over the transfer of the teachers is all about because as far as I am concerned, the decision has been taken by the ministry that they soon be redeployed to other stations,” he said.
