Learners in grade 10 to 12 are invited to attend extra classes on Saturdays and holidays to improve their performance for their final examinations. These classes are only available for learners in selected schools and if you attend at one of the selected schools, you will be able to take advantage of this opportunity.
For the list of selected schools see http://www.education.gpg.gov.za/Documents/SSIP_sites.xlsx.
The grade 12 programme seeks to improve performance in six subjects: maths, maths literacy, physical science, accounting, life sciences and English.

Classes for grade 12 start from 17 April 2010 and will run during holidays until the start of matric examinations on 25 October 2010.
Food will be provided at the sites and transport in some outlying areas. Learners who attend regularly will have a weekly opportunity to win 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup tickets. The top two learners in each participating school will be offered university bursaries worth R35 000.
