The Western Cape Education Department has decided to launch a programme that will provide quality public schooling for all children.

The department says one of their greatest educational challenge is to ensure that learners in poorer communities are able to access the same quality of education as those who can afford to pay more for additional resources.

“Through our new Collaboration Schools pilot, we will test a new and exciting model of schooling that brings additional education management skills and innovation into the public school system.” Ministerial spokesperson Jessica Shelver said.
                                                                          

The pilot will continue for a period of five years, subject to the performance of the partners and the schools.
