Basic Education | Budget cuts jeopardising future prospects of learners: Gwarube


The current budget cuts in the education sector put the future prospects of learners in jeopardy.

This is according to Basic Education Minister Siviwe Gwarube, who emphasised that regression and underfunding will lead to most provincial departments being unable to maintain their basket of posts for teachers in the next three years.

You cant give money you dont have :- How to get it- Until we privatise failed Governement run entities and give them to the companies with the Knowledeg and skills to run and expand capacity and jobs, we will always have an economic problem of servicing debt. Small Governement setting empowering business Polcy and supporting growth in the hands of our very skilled multi racial people irrespective of colour and devoid of corruption is the only answer to success. If we dont do that, we will be like any other sick, filthy defunctional country in Africa under a Socialistic policy which enriches the few at the expense of contolling the majority poor. Stop BBEEEE and all those other reverse racist policies which do not work and do as I say above and watch the difference.

wow, budgets line

Yhooo the accent, the cut was deliberate

Haibo that 324.5 reading is BEE 30%…

Theres around 6000 teachers getting axed althought they love to focus on WCs 2000 for some reason, but thats nothing new. Yearly we see teachers getting retrenched we also see unions protest doubt digits like how 1-2years ago scholar transport denied kids lifts to their final matric exams.

Let alone the budget not only needs like additional teachers they also need additional scholar transport and a budget to maintain it with funding for the nutritional programs so how do you cut teachers, but make it law to put all kids in schools, yet cant pay current transport/nutrition programs and teachers. Confusing

Gauteng spoke about an sms system for parents that will allow them to apply, yet ignore the very poor their forcing to go to school who are the very same they neglect with the sms agenda….

@africanknowledge4U

who needs an official policy of segregation when you can simply undermine the education of an entire generation instead? It is almost as if creating opportunities for the youth would be too ambitious a task. Clearly, the current government has decided that making education inaccessible through chronic underfunding, administrative chaos, and widespread corruption is a much more innovative way to perpetuate inequality. Why bother with the overt mechanisms of apartheid when systemic neglect can do the job just as efficiently?
