PREVIEW:
1.1 Children do not hold human rights. (2)
Reason: This statement is incorrect because children do hold human rights. According to
international human rights instruments like the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the
Child (UNCRC), children are recognized as individuals with their own rights, which include the
right to education, the right to be protected from harm, and the right to express their views.
1.2 According to the South African Schools Act (No. 84 of 1996), it is not compulsory for children
to complete Grade 9. (2)
Reason: This statement is incorrect because, according to the South African Schools Act (No. 84 of
1996), it is compulsory for children to attend school from Grade 1 to Grade 9 or until the age of
15, whichever comes first. This legislation ensures that all children have access to basic education
up to the end of Grade 9.
