Learners from Grade 1 to 12 in most schools in Mpumalanga have given up their September school holidays to support the province "Catch Up" programme.

Learners are attending school as normal until the 1st of October 2010.

Mpumalanga education spokesperson Jasper Zwane said “This would enable schools and pupils to recover lost time, complete the syllabus and fill gaps left as a result of the national teachers' strike, which recently brought schooling to a standstill in many areas of the country”.

Zwane also added that the provincial education department has established learning centers for Grade 12’s which is operational on Saturdays and Sundays.
