Education
without a doubt is one of the most important assets in human mankind. Parents on Rustenburg South Africa even send their kids to most prestigious school and spend thousands of rand in order to attain a
good and quality education. It is harder and even tougher for a person to get a
decent job in Rustenburg if he didn’t attain a formal or high education.
Before
apartheid, children and student in South Africa were suffering from poor education and unable to
attend college or high schools. Because of
poverty, many children in South Africa were unable to continue their studies resulting to drop
out of school. Failures were also because principals and teachers did not have
the skills and appropriate training for their jobs. The reality that math and
science are both discussed in English; teachers do not have the English
language skills to conduct it appropriately to students.
As
President Nelson Mandela quoted “"Education
is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”. And since 1994 and beyond, the number of students that are attending
the schools has risen scrupulously compared to the past decades. As a matter of fact, the latest graduation
exam that was took recently among 7 million students and based on Basic Education Minister Angie Motshekga, the matric pass rate for 2012 is 73.9%. This was
really good news knowing that the government is not cutting its budget for
education.
Another ground breaking news is
that the government of South Africa will share another R23-billion alone for education. This huge amount of money will be spent on school
infrastructures, free education program, more teachers to be trained on math
and sciences, more teachers to come on school and more programs to be built for
education purposes.
Rustenburg South Africa's Education Today |
We can
say that the government of South Africa has done a lot of achievements so far but it does not
end there. There are still more work to be done. The government must continue
what has been started before like building more infrastructures, clean water
and sanitation, making sure that there will be no more schools under the trees,
must implement the modernization of vocational training and more computers to
be touched by students.
So to
benefits from this program, one must start to take advantage of it. Education in Rustenburg South Africa must be prioritize in order to secure your future and your love ones. There was
once a saying, ‘what you saw is what you reap’. It means, if you obtain
education, you will get job faster!
