Another case of the African National Corruption MYANC brigade lying to the people, and the uneducated masses slurping it all up.

Very easy trick lol

Because the education system in South Africa is a joke those kids won’t even meet the university requirements

You're telling me that a full 20% of matrics did WORSE THAN 30%?!

That’s the easiest trick in the world. Just knock out those that are in doubt before the last year. Brilliant!

80% of a lowered rate is nothing impressive 🤷🏿‍♂️. . . Tell us how many of those are above 75% 🧐🧐🧐🧐

Bcz 30% is a pass.

Why not report reality that on 37% of kids who entered school 12 years ago passed matric exam. We should measure education success on number of children who entered the system and 12 years later stepped out with matric.

BUT dear Minister Angie, if the pass rate is lowered further, 100% pass rate can be achieved ....... UNLESS YOU ARE EXCEPTIONALLY DOFF !!
