Labby Ramrathan | More bachelor's passes, but fewer opportunities to access university education

Labby Ramrathan asks why SA continues with the NSC pass grades, knowing that the majority of matriculants won't be able to access post-school learning opportunities.

Congratulations to the class of 2023 on an exceptional pass rate, taking into consideration the effects of Covid-19 on learning loss and the diverse school contexts within which teaching and learning takes place.

The pupils have certainly worked extremely hard, with the support of their teachers, their schools, and their parents to achieve this exceptional performance.
