The Democratic
Alliance in the Free State said 30 percent of schools in the province do not
have all the textbooks they need.
The DA randomly
selected 20 schools to visit and six out of those schools did not have the
necessary teaching materials needed.
The Department
of Basic Education in the Free State said that almost 100 percent of schools
had received their textbooks for the year.
DA Free State
Leader Patricia Kopane said the missing textboooks at the schools cover
important subjects such as Maths, Life Science and Business Studies. And this is happening at different schools
and grades.
“As the
Democratic Alliance I will be writing to the Minister Angie Motshekga and MEC
Makgoe about the findings of our oversight visits, because we know exactly
where the schools are and what they need” Kopane added.
