EXTRACT A
When“almost a third of learners halfway through their second school year (Grade 2) do
not know all the letters of the alphabet, and fewer than half of Grade 6 learners tested
could achieve the Grade 3 benchmark in reading fluency, we are in a crisis. It represents
a devastating disregard for our responsibilities to the next generation, as well as a national
humiliation. It happened under the noses of our teachers, education departments, political
parties, government – and parents. Not another day should be lost in tackling this
wasteland. We have lost a decade of progress; the average Grade 4 child in South Africa
is three years behind their Brazilian counterpart. These measures will show results and
help restore citizens’ sense of priorities. A child can learn more under a tree with a good
teacher than from an untrained teacher in a pristine building. To borrow the phrase of US
campaign expert James Carville, who coined the election theme, “It’s the economy,
stupid”, in education “It’s the teaching, stupid.” Still, physical conditions in many schools
are not acceptable. Someone needs to be named to take responsibility for the quality of
buildings, and to resolve the problem of empty schools, including many Nelson Mandela
raised money to build. By mid-2023 there remained 3,300 schools still using pit latrines,
in which small children have died. For pity’s sake, can we not end this rapidly, by putting
one person in charge and accountable in public, until it’s done? The budget for 4,000
schools was R10-billion, which seems more than generous. Since most schools without
proper toilets are in rural areas, where the average school size is fewer than 500 learners,
the amount of about R2.5-million per school seems excessive. An audit committee should
be asking searching questions. Source: Page 3 of 6 In an essay of not more than 1000
