Today more than 600,000 Grade 12 pupils will be writing their exams in more than 8,000 exam centres.

The grade 12’s will be kicking off today with information technology and computer application technology.

Many of the 640-thousand candidates’ learning were seriously disrupted this year by the public service strike and a long winter holiday to accommodate the Soccer World Cup.

Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga said yesterday that she was confident despite the teacher’s strike that this year matric rate will be higher than last years.

Education MEC Barbara Creecy said “We want to wish them strength; cool heads, strong hands, and you have all of our thoughts, blessings and prayers”.
