The Department will sustain the successes of its on-line admissions application process through ensuring the transparent and efficient placement of learners in our schools. School governance will always be a critical pillar of the democratic management of our schools. In this administration, we will continue to support SGBs and promote effective school governance practices through a range of interventions that will include dedicated technical support and the provision of training in areas such as School Finances, Curriculum Management, and others. We will continue to promote a robust, progressive role for SGBs that is in line with their mandate and obligations of SASA. As MEC of Education in Gauteng, I will lead this effort in working closely with our parents, communities and relevant stakeholders to ensure that every learner is guaranteed the right to quality, equitable and relevant education in this dynamic province.

Sincerely,

Mr. Andrek Panyaza Lesufi, MPL MEC for Education
