, The Structure of the Education System and Racial Categories

Balfour (1994) states that the structure of South Africa’s education system was
designed along racial categories, meaning that education was deliberately segregated
to reinforce apartheid ideologies. Under the Bantu Education Act of 1953, education for
Black South Africans was inferior, underfunded, and tailored to prepare them for
subservient roles in society (Christie, 2008). Tables 1.1.1 and 1.1.2 (Balfour, 1994, p. 3)
highlight stark inequalities in funding, teacher-pupil ratios, and curriculum differences.

some institutions focusing on religious and agricultural training, while others
incorporated broader academic subjects to develop critical thinking (Giliomee, 2003).
