Section 27 is awaiting a report from the Department of Basic Education on the delivery of textbooks to Limpopo schools.

The rights group says they have serious concerns that the Department has not met their deadline of midnight yesterday.

Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga applied for an extension of the June 15 deadline to deliver the books due to logistics problems.

Some schools in the province have been without textbooks since the start of the school year six months ago.
