 The long wait is almost over for the class of 2012, who will receive their final matric results in a weeks time.

The overall Provincial and national results  will be released next Wednesday.

Western Cape MEC for  Education Donald Grant said he is hopeful that there will be an improvement in the results this year.

 Spokesperson Bronagh Casey said that the department is confident in the class of 2012 and they are hopeful that there will be remarkable changes.

Casey adds that the best way to analyse  and to interpret the results is to  not only look at the past rate but to also look at the concern the number of candidates passing and the quality of the passes.

Casey furthermore  added that the Department will look at different aspects including whether more learners are progressing to grade 12 and  passing each year.

The Department adds that they have yet to find out how many have passed but it is already noted that the retention rate has improved since 2009.
