Tomorrow, Thursday 30 June 2016, Minister Debbie Schäfer will visit the Grade 12 Winter Schools Holiday Programme at Isilimela Secondary School in Langa where almost 1000 Grade 12 learners from 7 high schools in the area are attending an intensive revision programme ahead of the 2016 National Senior Certificate (NSC) examinations.
The schools taking part in the Winter School at Isilimela Secondary School are:
- Fezeka Secondary School
- ID Mkize Senior Secondary
- Ikamvalethu Secondary School
- Intshukumo Secondary School
- Isilimela Secondary Schools
- Kulani Secondary School
- Langa Secondary School
This is just one of the many Winter Schools that the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) is running across the province to ensure that our Grade 12 learners are well prepared for the upcoming examinations.
Providing curriculum support to our Grade 12 learners is always a priority, and the Grade 12 ‘winter schools’ programme is just one of the many interventions by the WCED to help support and assist our Grade 12 learners.
We are fast approaching the final NSC examinations and after 12 years of schooling, the next five months are the most critical in a learner’s school career.
Minister Schäfer will be visiting the Grade 12 programme Isilimela Secondary School to encourage the learners to stay focused and put in the hard work that is required to succeed in the NSC.
All media are invited and welcome to attend.
