What a breath of fresh air, she is and what a job she has on her hands..: I wish her every success..
Curriculum review, begin at Pre-primary. Enlist people who KNOW how to introduce children to reading, writing, numeracy. A panel like this should include people of all SA languages.....acquiring these skills may be strongly linked to mother tongue, and culture.
I'm a retired Secondary School teacher. I loved it.
I take my hat of for this lady. Watch this space i salute you young lady now something is starting to happens.❤❤❤
An excellent appointment!! A person that speaks so well and knows what she is talking about. We must all support her and help bring our education system to world standard. Her confidence at being able to work with the unions provided they have the welfare of the child and educators at heart is highly remarkable.
Go minister. Quality education for all 💙
❤
Siviwe, teachers must now get out of the political arena and focus on classroom issues.
They spend all the time on Unions instead of regular personal upgrading programme that align their work to latest approaches to the profession worldwide, starting in Zimbabwe who are very impressive indeed.
Please Stop Comprehensive Sex Education!
Stop Transgender Dysphoria BS!!!
Teach Children skills that will help them contribute to society as productive citizens!!!
Ya she is not going to do that she is pushing ECE hard, she doesn't even respond to emails regarding this. We the people will have to wake up and stop this ourselves, make use of your rights before its too late as they will not.
@@user-zv3vo7ei7g Exactly!!!
All the best to the minister as stakeholders for basic education we look forward to engaging with her on how we can improve the curriculum in our schools when she opens the channels of communication with business south africa and not business as usual.
With regard to job creation, the Honourable Minister must look at building more vocational schools for our youth. Let us face reality, not all can become engineers, doctors etc
Corruption by SGB and their teachers please look into it
We need to pray for her 🙏🏾
❤
Yes, let's pray for her, parents, teachers, unions, learners and grannies that are mentoring the learners.
She doesn't need prayers. She has this
There needs to be more training for teachers for Special Needs education. Our special needs kids and youth do not have resources to better their education. This includes your disabled kids and our kids who are on the spectrum. These learners are suffering! I see it as a parent of a learner with additional educational needs.
As a minister of education she already sounds much better than the previous one.
Thanks Siviwe, we hope that foundation phase will also be taken into consideration, focus seems to be in grade 12 all the time.
I really hope she will change the ek equality in education. I hope she gets all the schools to have the same curriculum throughout all schools even the schools that is in hidden villages.
Then make all the provinces education curriculum the same that parents when move not to buy schools books from scratch.
I am sure that they will have less headaches in the education department.
Thank goodness someone with competence to drive this very important portfolio.
She is giving me hope. Nobody in this potfolio who ever thought of safety and well being of educators.
WELL SPOKEN AND VERY ENERGETIC LOOKING FORWARD WITH THE CHALLENGES 👌👌
My desire is for the minister to brainstorm on how numeracy and literacy is.going to be improved. This has always been worrying me. Lastly, do you ever consider involving professionals from other sectors, engineering, financial, etc in your brainstorming session for the improvement of our education system?
Warm welcome new Minister wish you all the best and hope we will engage to bring a lot of improvement in the education system.
Sakina don't be confrontational to Siviwe who is new into a rotten system. No school is built without a roof. If teachers and Unions focus on their salaries instead of the classroom conditions and environment. Siviwe is no holy ghost who is everywhere and all the time.
Sakina's manner is aggressive, she comes across as wanting to control the show.
Sakina still has a chip on her shoulder, sadly!
I totally agree with you
She must change the pass mark to 50% then we will talk
how about 70% pass mark, lets aim big, we are competing with the rest of the world.
@@Geffect-Foundation75%
80% is the norm
Heeee ingathi iya ku100% ngoku 😅

The idea that there is a place for 30%nters even on earth is ridiculous .Thats like saying that there is a place for people who have paid bribes to get a drivers licence on our roads because not everyone is enclined to pass a drivers liecence .Its ANCish and must be rejected .
Ok, Minister we will be looking out for you to make a difference in this portfolio.
Hope all goes well for you dear ..i can see you on the right path.its a worry for our kids
Will there be classes around children who are not able to learn academically where they get hands on education and come out with 2nd year apprenticeship?
The teachers ar all the time on they're phones
AND FLIPPIN SADTU MEETINGS,THERE ARE MORE SATU MEETINGS THAN SCHOOL DAYS,IYS BEEN 5 DAYS SINCE SHOO; OPENED AND ALREADY A SADTU MEETING.
We need more skill based schools or incorporated into the current schools for those who are not academic as well.
Minister please check the Nutrition side also, section 21 Schools their Budget is hanging by them in Schools.
Starting from the Principals until Admn, they are having Companies which are Supplying those Groceries at Schools,
They can't Teach our children and also have their Businesses.
It's bad, they are on wholesale cues during school ours.
Minister please relook that program must be done by Regional Offices, ndiyacebisa.
Thank you

Absolutely the three Rs are the basis for a successful education. Grades 0-3 are the most important
Commit all your plans, dreams,, and aspirations to GOD's counsel.
The reason that the classrooms are too big and teachers are leaving is due to low pay and the government schools refusing to employ more teachers - even though there are many of us qualified teachers who are unemployed.
Wishing her ministry all the best💯❣
Im watching this show now what on earth did the Anc and Angie do for education look at those class rooms look at the situations those kids are in
I wish she resilve the issue of principals who are home but earning because the SGB chased them. That is so sick. How does the government pay a person for 10yrs when he is home.
80% of ou gr 8 & 9 learners technically fail but are being progressed to the next grade by the District offices. Educators' hands are tied! 😢
I really hope she can improve. Im a teacher may she ask teachers the areas that need to improve or change
I'm trying to find where these questions were asked to the former minister. Can someone help me
Congratulations to Ms S Gwarube her appointment as Minister in the DBE.
Let's give her a chance. For me, as a teachers he has her finger on the pulse.
2nd point is that journalists must stop to talk about what they do not know. The 30% matter is not new. Symbol F was a % between 30%-39% and there was an aggregate F-S, school leaving certificate, so( 30-39) % was a pass mark. In this dispensation, there is no aggregate 30% pass mark,but rather a minimum combination of 30% and 40% for one to obtain what is called matric Hihger certificate, which is equivalent to S-F or S-E or S-EE
Very important that children learn about our anthem, constitution and national unity at that level ❤
Thank you Siviwe and Sakina. We love you the Minister and receive our prayer. We don't have to pressurised the new Mister, she will prioritise all unresolved outstanding issue of the Department of Education. I think SADTU and other Unions must bring their inputs comments or discussion to the table in order for the Minister to run the Department easily, instead of bringing negativity. The 30% Grade 12 University Entrance is a Drop-out of before first year and after. I want the Minister to liaise with Gauteng Province (Tshwane), public school that has long time ago started Early learning development of school learners from Grade RR-R, and from Grade 1-7, learning Spelling and Reading, Maths, English and Afrikaans and projects, from Grade RR-R and from Grade 1-7, teachers and childrens are doing well and they are the Top Performers and this BELA BILL Education Amendment BILL, Mother's tongue language, i resolved it as a granny, my 2 Grand daughters are doing Afrikaans as a mothers tongue language and they don't have a problem because parents and grannies don't know Sesotho, Sepedi and Tshivenda.

Please make sure that the grants reach ground level. The provincial and district officials drive expensive cars and wear exspensive clothes and our learners does not even have pens to write with.
Sakile give the minister a chance to carry out her job. After 30 years to have such poor infrastructure for schools is despicable.
Words can't explain how much I love you, Siviwe. Maybe we will cross paths some day!
Increase for the teacher please minister
Best of luck madam
In some of the poor provinces, there is an expectation that schools will be built and retention of best teachers in schools be a priority. All employees of the department must adhere to their contractual agreements without fail.
I feel pity for this Young Minister of Education shem. She does not have a clue concerning the CONDITIONS in our schools. Classes are OVERCROWDED in the rural schools. There are no sufficient RESOURCES, both HUMAN and Material. Kids share one LEARNERS BOOK. In some schools there are no chalks to write notes on the chalkboard. CAN SOMEBODY GIFT THE MINISTER A CLIP ON WHAT TAKES PLACE IN OUR SCHOOL ENVIRONMENTS .I only hear a WISHFUL THINKING HERE. Welcome to the real world Nosi.
Well done 👏
Hi, I agree with you Jenny.
What’s wrong with revising the pass mark and then working toward getting the learners to meeting it?
It easy to list all these well known problems but fixing them is what we expect to hear articulation on what are the plans for the tyre to me the tar.
How stupid was the previous ministers??? This is so basic it ever undermines her intelligence
The education system needs to be changed for high school learners. The National Department needs to come up with a new approach, the current one does not work. How come there are so many people unemployed in this country? No stone throwing, just a bit of commence sense. 😊
Learners in Grade R-3 should learn one language thoroughly before the second language is introduced, preferably in grade 4. Huge chasm between grades 2 and 3. Too much rigidity and too little methodology allowing teachers to facilitate learning and teaching.
Minister what is your view on CSE?
Sakina just schooled the minister on what the 30% pass mark means. am a teacher by profession and we as teachers are not concerned about that 30% because its not the target, its simply what some learners fall on. Remember not all learners have the capability to get 50% or 70%
The failure of learners to reach 50% pass mark solely lies on your colleagues. How do you have an educator teaching a subject that he/she got less than 70% in matric?
It seems she has the worst job in Parilament.
Eh he
How can children be able to read for meaning when teachers are flocking to an 'influencer' life..spend loads of time on tiktok and UA-cam creating channels and streaming..and bombarding kids with endless homeworks, teachers must take time and do their work which is to teach
Then please.... Take away robotics and coding when kids can't even read... Lets focus on the importance of the basics
These teachers they are not well trained tuu we are doing homeworks as parents for our kids and they are blank

What has that got to do with the education minister ?

Minister is not for the Housing Department.🤣🤣🤣
If that's your main concern and reasoning then I do not think you should be in the teaching profession
NSFAS Teacher.
I dont hear any strategy but wishful thinking.
This lady has no idea at all what she is faced with and what needs to be done.
Lack of experience.
