The Western Cape Department of Education says efforts to recover from learning losses due to the COVID-19 health crisis are being severely curtailed as a result of the ongoing rolling blackouts in the country. loadshedding

Western Cape Education MEC David Maynier says the current unreliable electricity supply prevents the sector from catching up from the setback of the past two years.

Maynier has expressed concern that learning will be further disrupted if the continuous electricity outages do not end in time for the beginning of the third term. “While schools are currently closed for the mid-year break, load shedding continues to cause serious disruption to education in the Western Cape. The winter break is a critical time for our students. Winter school and revision programmes are under way, which are especially important for our matriculants as they count down the weeks until the National Senior Certificate exams,” adds Maynier.
