The Western
Cape Department of Education today briefed the Standing Committee on Education
about different issues including the 2013 National Senior Certificate and plans
to improve literacy and numeracy.
Committee
Chairperson Cathy Labuschagne said education is key to the development of any
young person , and this poses serious challenges especially for a country as
complex and set apart as ours.
“A few things
that stood out for me in the standing committee is that although there is a lot
of pressure on the education system, more and more people are going to school
and the population increased in the Western Cape.” Labuschagne added.
Labuschagne
further added that in the matric results one thing that stood out for me is the
increase of the Bachelor Degrees that is quality indicative.
