Reflect on your feelings about joining a union.I joined SADTU in order to get support and protection in cases of unfair labour practices. It helps me connect with other teachers and start sharing teaching resources, thus enhancing my teaching skills. SADTU has workshops and meetings where in we are taught about professional growth, our responsibilities in schools, and how to improve performance of leaners and create a good learning environment.

Who in your school do you think would add value to this PLC?When starting a PLC, the problem to be explored is how to help improve learners engagement and motivation in the classroom, especially with students who are struggling academically or dont focus in class. This problem is important because student engagement and motivation are serious factors in academic success, and yet many teachers struggle to connect with and inspire their students.
The following individuals from the school could be invited to participate and add a lot of value. This include teachers from different subject areas so that they could bring different information on how to engage students in different subjects. We could also invite counselors and advisors in order for them to offer guidance on how to support learners emotionally and mentally. Principals and deputy principals could provide leadership and support, as well as share their own opinions on how to promote student engagement and motivation. We should also have departmental head to help facilitate communication and collaboration among teachers within their department. We can also include experienced teachers to provide guidance and support to newer teachers and help facilitate PLC discussions. We cannot forget learners representatives to provide feedback and insights from the class and they will learn more on how to control the class.
