It will also allow them to choose between academic, technical or vocational streams in line with their strengths.“We will continue to adapt the curriculum to prepare learners for the fourth industrial revolution and increase resources for TVET colleges.”
He called on the private sector and other partners to work with training authorities to develop the skills that the economy needed. “As we expand access to early childhood development, there needs to be an intensive focus on early reading, which determines a child’s educational progress through school, through higher education and into the workplace,” he added.
“We must speed up the implementation ... for learners to make an easy transition from school to colleges and universities and to be educated and trained in a way that meets the skills and labour demands of the country's economy.”“The results demonstrate that SA has made great strides in improving educational outcomes over the last 25 years, particularly in township and rural schools.”
However, Ramaphosa said more still needed to be done to effectively prepare SA youth for the future economy.
I foresee danger here
Are the government officials kids also exiting school in Gr.9? I doubt Cyril or Angie would recommend that for their kids or grandchildren.
Mr president is a business man with no real interest for society
We need more handy people that can build houses and make furniture and electrify houses and plumbing etc there is lots of work on those fields. They only need basic education finish and klaar.
Those who droped out of grade 12, 11 & 10 should probably get those certificates too right?
Why do u keep learners that will never be engineers and accountants etc at school while u can turn them into handy man and woman at early age and gain experience and start self employed operations etc.
🙄🙄
I lost confidence in this big nose president and his government a long time ago
And what are they going to do after exiting grade 9. Can’t see anyone employing them if they think of entering the job market.
As a black party the ANC is failing it's voters and their children. It's as if they do not want to educate the masses. The majority that will be exited will be black... They will not be employable.. They just creating more grant beneficiaries that out of desperation vote ANC
