Education does not start at Matric, how do we expect our Children to be better people tomorrow if we only think that passing Matric is the only thing they need to achive in their schooling time, it is wrong, education must start at the early stage of child upbringing, teach them morals while small to better them for future. We are doomed if we only focus on matrics, our education system need sober ministers, not Mma Angie, we need people who knows what education mean, Angie does not know. We need people like Prof Bhengu, Prof Mangena, we need leaders in education

Agree with you 100% Papage. We need to beef up primary education, it is not easy to teach children in English in Grade 8 whereas they can barely construct a sentence in English. Our primary education needs to focus on languages and literacy ensure that our children can read and have decent numeracy skills.

All the best to the schools it seemed they tried their best hope it pays off.

we still have teachers who do not attend to their periods, teachers who are always late at school, teachers who are drunk at school, teachers who teach subjects they have no thorough knowledge of . . .

We wish the Class of 2012 all the best. For graduates who would love to teach for about two years, please check out Teach SA. We really need your knowledge and skills.
