WC Education MEC wishes matric learners well for final exams

The examinations will conclude on the 25th of November.

The Western Cape Department of Education is wishing matric learners good luck as they begin the National Senior Certificate (NSC) exams, particularly for the computer application technology practical. This year, over 71,000 full-time learners and more than 13,000 part-time learners across the province will be taking the exams, which will conclude on November 25th.

Western Cape MEC of Education, Jaco Londt, expresses optimism that this year's matric pass rate will improve. He advises the matriculants to remain focused during the final weeks, warning against shortcuts that are not worth taking. The learners have already pledged to follow the exam rules, and Londt urges them to adhere to this commitment.

He reminds them that hard work, discipline, and taking constructive breaks in between studying are essential at this stage. Once the exams are over, celebrations will follow. Londt urges the learners to make themselves, their families, and their communities proud.
