Woza Matrics launched

The Woza Matrics programme aims to help all Grade 12 learners pass their final examinations.

This year’s matriculants have to faced considerable challenges because of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19). 

The Department of Basic Education (DBE) has ensured that the safe re-opening of schools is one of its top priorities, along with supporting learners with various programmes to help them successfully complete the academic year. 

Protect our women and children  

A year ago, almost to the day, thousands of women, men and children marched to Parliament to protest against a spate of rapes and killings of women and girls.

At the time, the nation was reeling from the murders of Uyinene Mrwetyana, Leighandre Jegels, Jesse Hess and a number of other women who had lost their lives at the hands of brutal men.

Sign language given a boost

The lives of deaf people in South Africa are being made a bit easier through improved communication. 

South African Sign Language (SASL) is set to be standardised, following the launch of the SASL Charter.

The charter addresses inconsistencies in the use of sign language and ensures that sign language interpreters have the right skills.
