Umalusi has started its annual charade of "quality assuring" matric results. For "quality assuring" read "making the ANC look good by fudging the results and making them higher in certain areas". When asked some time ago which results had been raised, Umalusi's reply was that this information was confidential. How convenient.Its annual budget of R68.8-million of taxpayers' money could be better spent in many other areas of education, such as delivering books on time.It would also make a huge difference if we got rid of education ministers Angie Motshekga and Blade Nzimande before they do more irreparable damage.Please don't look to Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi either. He has become very quiet since his badly timed idea of throwing tablets at schools to sort out all education problems.It is painfully obvious that such a scheme will not work if you don't have the infrastructure, teachers are not trained and pupils do not have the correct grounding in the basics.My heartfelt plea to the ANC is to employ competent professional leaders and not useless ANC cadres, but I can't see that ever happening.This is where you can get your resultsThe department's website www.dbe.gov.za.Results will also be available on SowetanLIVE via Times LIVE from 06:00 on WednesdayResults for the Western Cape will be available online from 14:00 on Wednesday at http://www.westerncape.gov.za/service/examination-information-and-results...
