South African politician, Mmusi Maimane calls for new leadership in the education sector.
Maimane took to Twitter to share a video addressing a few concerns he has about the education sector following the release of class of 2020 matric result.
The politician congratulated them for their hard work and wished them well.
In the video he shared, he took time to list academic issues faced by students.
He also went on to say that the country needs to do everything possible so the graduates don’t become unemployed.
“I want to say, let’s do everything possible to make sure these young people don’t just simply join the ranks of the unemployed but can find meaningful employment, get into universities and ultimately be able to find programmes that assist them in learning further.”
“I think we must never lose track of the fact that whilst we might have a perceived high pass rate we have some serious challenges in education.”
“When it comes to many schools, infrastructure is still lagging behind. It is clear about the fact that we need new leadership in education.”
