With the class of 2022 concluding the National Senior Certificate examinations this week, thousands of pupils across the country are gearing up to attend various festivals and parties to celebrate. | Lisaleesolomon1

Department of Basic Education Elijah Mhlanga said the"pens down parties" after exams were"negative" and that pupils needed to be responsible when out celebrating."There is always something negative that is coming out [of these parties], where young people resort to these types of entertainment, which is dangerous. We are saying, 'please refrain from this type of behaviour which will get you into trouble for all sorts of reasons'," said Mhlanga.

Free State education department spokesperson Howard Ndaba said they were grateful that the exams in the province went smoothly without incident. He said while the department acknowledged the hard work done and high levels of stress experienced by matric pupils, it shouldn't be an excuse for"misbehaving in public spaces".
