Teacher organisation NAPTOSA insists that the re-opening of schools should be delayed.
It says many schools are still not ready to accommodate learners.
NAPTOSA, the second largest teacher union, is among the education unions and other stakeholders which met Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga to discuss the partial re-opening of schools.
Motshekga
has said Grades 7 and 12 learners will return to school from tomorrow, but there are reports suggesting this might not happen.
Motshekga is expected to give an update on the matter later this afternoon.
Meanwhile, the Department of Health says at least 1902 children below the age of 19 have tested positive for coronavirus in South Africa.
