The National Department of Education is the overall winner of this year’s, Annual Public Sector Reporting Awards.

“The award recognises departments that have consistently provided information in their annual year,” says the National Education spokesperson, Lunga Ngqengelele.

Ngqengele says that this simply means that, the Education Department will have a financial year report that could be easily understood and factual.

“The Minister of Education is quiet happy with the award. She expressed the hope that this would also translate into quality education that we are providing for learners throughout the country,” adds Ngqengelele.

The awards were introduced six years ago by the Southern African Institute of Government Auditors, to recognise the pursuit of excellence in the annual reports published by all provincial and national departments.
