High Court orders SADTU, COSAS not to disrupt systemic tests
27 October 2016
The High Court issued an order instructing SADTU and COSAS to inform their members not to disrupt systemic tests commissioned by the Western Cape Education Department.
Ms Acting Justice McCurdie ruled last night (26 October 2016) that disrupting the tests is unlawful.
The WCED is testing the skills of learners in Grades 3, 6 and 9 in language and mathematics in the province.
The tests tell schools and the department exactly what to do to improve these skills in our schools.
