Gauteng's Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi is self-isolating after two staff members tested positive for Covid-19, Premier David Makhura revealed on Friday.
"Like all other patients, affected staff and their family members are receiving care and treatment in line with the World Health Organisation (WHO) protocols," he added.
Staff members who were in contact with those who contracted the virus have been tested and would follow protocols to prevent the spread of the virus.
"Once a staff member tests positive, we also trace their contacts.
"It is everyone's responsibility to play our part and take the necessary precautionary measures to stop the spread of Covid-19," he concluded.
