Parents has voiced their frustration regarding learner
placement in the Western Cape.
A learner placement meeting, organised by the Mitchells
Plain Community Advice Development, was held at the Portland Indoor Centre
earlier today.
The latest figures from three weeks ago from the WCED
revealed that about 2 500 learners still needed to be placed.
The WCED was not in attendance. Bush Radio News reached out
to the Education department who cited short notice for their absence.
‘’We were aware of the meeting by the legal practice. We
did try to get admission staff to attend the meeting, but it was short notice
which means retasking helping parents from our district office. Our officials have
asked to be directed to district office which is the appropriate channel for
queries,’’ said Bronagh Hammond, WCED spokesperson.
‘’Our officials asked details of parents who are having
difficulty with their queries with the district office so our officials can contact
them directly and assist them. The legal practice did not provide details as
yet,’’ she added.
