Where are those who were criticizing the ANC and the Minister of education? These anti ANC are failing themselves not our education. Well done Minister for empowering our children.👍🏿

Good so we can strengthen our skills our creativity so we can do things practical not just on paper as it happened now,we need stable education curriculum.

Wow. Is this all part of the 4th industrial revolution. Grade 9 education will give you the correct skills to be a valuable player in the SA team. Levels are dropping aided by the ANC. What leadership. The leaders are second to none. Why dont they do away with schools one time?
