David Maynier launches #BackOnTreack campaign# 11 May 2023 Massive R1.2 billion
#BackOnTrack campaign launched to reverse learning losses in the Western Cape Today
we launched the #BackOnTrack programme, which is a big, bold intervention to reverse
Covid-19 learning losses in the Western Cape. The pandemic is over, but the effect of the
pandemic is not over. Earlier this year, we released our 2022 systemic test results for
Mathematics and Reading, which confirmed that during the pandemic, learning outcomes
fell off a cliff. We simply cannot say that a child is receiving quality education if more than
half of our Grade 3, 6, and 9, learners cannot achieve the basic pass score for Mathematics
and Reading. And we expect the results of the Progress in International Reading and
Literacy Study 2021, due to be released next week, to show learners across our country are
facing the same challenge. We have to act, and we have to act decisively, and we have to act
in a way that has impact in order to deal with what is a full-blown learning crisis. This is
why we are investing a massive R1.2 billion into our #BackOnTrack programme over the
next three years, to improve learning outcomes so that our children have a better future in
the Western Cape. The programme marks a big change from ‘business as usual’ in our
schools. The scale of the programme is unprecedented: 333 schools have been selected to
receive targeted support based on the systemic test results, in addition to the 1 100 schools
already receiving extra support in the Foundation Phase since 2022. 4 The new schools
selected will identify 126 000 learners, 8 980 teachers and 28 000 parents targeted for
focussed participation, in addition to the 310 000 learners and 10 000 teachers already
participating in the Foundation Phase. All school phases are covered, with all grades in the
Foundation Phase, and Grade 4 in the Intermediate Phase, Grades 7 and 8 in the Senior
Phase, and Grades 10 and 12 in the Further Education and Training Phase, targeted. All
stakeholders in learning are being supported simultaneously, recognising that we can all
make a contribution towards improving learning outcomes. We’re using a variety of
teaching, learning and support methods, both in person and online. For example, we will be
taking some of our Grade 4, 7 and 8 teachers out of class every ten days, for targeted
support. And our Grade 12s will participate in biweekly online afternoon sessions with
