"We've lowered the standards so much that now we are finally improving" 🤦

[Clintyy]

This government has lowered the bar to floor-level. Literally anyone can now 'pass'. Well done anc viva stupidity viva

[esahg]

my wife is a school teacher, she is under FINAL WRITTEN WARNING for not passing a student who did not attend her classes, did not attend nor write his exams, did not come to school for 6months and had NEVER paid school fees.
my wife got final written warning, boy got passed onto the next grade.

What i heard: we've lowered the bar so low that people can now trip and fall over it to pass 😌

And some how people still arent 😒

[esahg]

highest pass rate, LOWEST employment rate. 😂

[shaunsnyman]

Whaha with a pass rate of 30% your matric certificate means nothing

[sharonhoughton]

Pathetic. 30% pass rate.40% pass in your mother language. Third rate teachers. SA should be ashamed of their education system

[tmmalejoane]

I mean with a pass mark of 30% I'm not surprised. Real question is, how many of those individuals actually qualify to go to university or college?

[sebastiaodeabreu]

The real disappointment is the standards being set for our future.

[andymarais]

Going through life NOT knowing 70% of what there is to know.

I would break Usain Bolt’s 100m sprint record if you reduced the distance to 50m… I’m THAT good

[Antz_]

Yeah, not so difficult when the required pass mark is 30% 🤫😶‍🌫

[FRANCOISPOOLMAN]

30% PASS RATE!!?? WTF!! WINDOW DRESSING MEANS BUKKEROL IN REAL LIFE!! WHERE IS THE JOBS ANC!?😢

[jpeg.jordaan]

Record low? Because it used to be 100% pass rate at a 50% pass mark, when did we reset the stats?

[percysaayman]

Pass percentage is a disgrace. Nothing to boast about

[EddyManfred]

Passing matric isn't a hurdle anymore, finding a sustainable job is a real hurdle that this government is incapable of encouraging

[PS-hvon]

49% of learners who started their schooling in 2013 never reached matric. Are you actually proud of that?

[leonardgardner]

BIGGEST LOAD OF BS EVER!!! THESE STUP FOOLS PASS WITH A 39% PASS. wtf

Every professional certificate exam in my life had a pass rate over 70% some 80%.

When we lower standards to 30-35% pass mark while including team related point recognition towards end results, you do not setup students to succeed in life you set them up to become a new type of slave. Either a slave of the social system or a debt slave trying to get the education after school.

Also schools do not teach active debate, logic and reasoning ability and rather focuses on indoctrination which is destructive to the world and entrenches the state mindset.

Let’s hope the young one’s learn this soon and use the remainder of their young life for better.
