19. Lets plan for 2016:
What do we need to do?
1. Map the school days;
2. Identify the holidays;
3. Identify a maximum of 29 days that
could be utilised for ‘administrative’
and/or examination days;
4. Be the guardian of the 170 days
for teaching and learning.

21. Group work:
• A file will be given to each group,
on which you need to work;
• Now, reduce the 199 days for
‘schooling’ to 170 days for
‘teaching and learning’;
• If you can’t get to 170 days, identify
the activities that prevent you from
‘securing’ 170 days.
