Lack of readiness in some Gauteng schools will negatively impact learners
11 January 2023
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Gauteng has conducted oversight visits to check school readiness. A high number of learners were unable to start school today because the department has failed to place them on time.
It is regrettable that the Gauteng Department of Education failed to place all learners who applied timeously before the new academic year started today.
During our oversight, we observed many parents queuing in search of space for learners. Equally, the DA has been inundated with calls and emails from parents desperately looking for space.
