The MEC for Education, Ms Cathy Dlamini is satisfied with the manner in which the 2024 Grade 12 winter vacation classes are progressing in the Province.
These classes started on 24 June in 101 centres for 22 500 grade 12 learners whose schools performed below 70% in the 2023 National Senior Certificate Examination Results and will continue until 05 July 2024.
The learners are taught by best performing educators with a good track.
All the identified learners are urged to take advantage of the winter vacation classes and participate meaningfully in order to be better prepared for the end of the National Certificate Examinations.
There are also camps organised in collaboration with the South African Council for Charted Accountants for the best performing learners in Mathematics, Science and Accounting.
These camps have been established to better equip the learners with more knowledge and skills to enable them to continue to excel in these subjects.
The overall intention is ensure that the Province improves its results this time around.
“ We urge all the learners to take advantage of this arrangement by ensuring that they attend every single day without fail.
We also call upon parents and school communities to support the learners by creating a conducive environment for these classes to progress peacefully. We wish the learners and educators the best of success”, said the MEC, Ms Cathrine Dlamini.
No one is being left behind.
