  • A Critical Appraisal of Policy on Educator Post
    A CRITICAL APPRAISAL OF POLICY ON EDUCATOR POST PROVISIONING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN KWAZULU-NATAL by INBANATHAN NAICKER Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the DOCTOR OF EDUCATION (DEd) in the discipline Education Management and Leadership, School of Education and Development, Faculty of Education, University of KwaZulu-Natal PROMOTER: Prof. Thengani H. Ngwenya DATE SUBMITTED: November 2005 DECLARATION I declare that this thesis titled, A CRITICAL APPRAISAL OF POLICY ON EDUCATOR POST PROVISIONING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN KWAZULU- NATAL is my own work and that all the sources that have been used or quoted, have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. ______________________ Inbanathan Naicker Reg. No.: 8116342 November 2005 ii ABSTRACT Historically, educator post provisioning in South African public schools has been a contentious issue. Informed by the apartheid ideology, the staffing of schools was skewed both quantitatively and qualitatively in favour of the white population group. In contrast, the schools catering for the black population had to contend with high learner-educator ratios and poorly qualified educators. With the coming into power of the first democratically elected government in 1994 there was growing optimism that equity, redress and social justice would prevail in all spheres of society, including education. In the education arena there were significant attempts at addressing the inequity that prevailed in terms of educator distribution. This study which is grounded in the field of policy analysis, critically analyses the policy on educator post provisioning in public schools in KwaZulu-Natal in the post apartheid era.

  • 12. South Africa
    12. South Africa Nick Vink, Gavin Williams and Johann Kirsten Until 1997, the marketing of wine, like most sectors of agriculture in South Africa, was extensively regulated by statute. The 1924 Wine and Brandy Control Act pioneered statutory control of agricultural markets. However, whereas most of the 22 marketing schemes introduced under the Marketing Acts of 1937 and 1968 brought markets under state control boards, wine was regulated by the industry's own institutions. The state also provided few direct subsidies. The industry did benefit, though, from price support and import protection, which enabled it to pass costs on to consumers, and from favourable excise taxes, which favoured the distilling of grapes into spirits at the expense of sugar producers. Like the rest of the agricultural sector of South Africa, the wine industry has been extensively deregulated in two phases over the past 20 years. The origins of the first phase can be found in the shift in monetary policy in the late 1970s and fiscal strategies in the 1980s,which undermined the complex struc- ture of protection, price support and cross-subsidies on which the system of agricultural support was founded. Before 1994, the tax regime was changed, and a start was made to land reform, and to labour legislation and trade poli- cies. The major change was the extensive deregulation of state agricultural marketing schemes within the framework of the Marketing Act of 1968 (Vink and Kassier, 1991;Francis and Williams, 1993;Vink, 1993,2000; Kirsten and Van Zyl, 1996; Williams et aI., 1998). One consequence was that statutory intervention lasted longer in the wine and sugar industries, which were not covered by the Marketing Act.

  • South Africa After Apartheid: a Whole New Ball Game, with Labor on the Team
    r , * ',-,- - i i-.-- : ii ii i -ii,,,c - -. i - 198 Broadway * New York, N.Y. 10038 e (212) 962-1210 Tilden J. LeMelle, Chairman Jennifer Davis, Executive Director MEMORANDUM TO: Key Labor Contacts FROM: Mike Fleshman, Labor Desk Coordinator DATE: June 7, 1994 South Africa After Apartheid: A Whole New Ball Game, With Labor On The Team Friends, The victory parties are finally over and, in the wake of Nelson Mandela's landslide election as South Africa's first-ever Black President, South African workers are returning to their jobs and to the enormous challenges that lie ahead. For the 1.2 million-member Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), whose support for Mandela's ANC was critical to the movement's runaway 62.5 percent victory, the end of apartheid brings new opportunities for South African workers, but also some new problems. One result of the ANC victory is the presence of key labor leaders in the new government. Two high ranking unionists, former COSATU General Secretary Jay Naidoo, and former Assistant General Secretary Sydney Mufamadi, were named to cabinet posts -- Mufamadi as Minister of Safety and Security in charge of the police, and Naidoo as Minister Without Portfolio, tasked with implementing the ANC/COSATU blueprint for social change, the national Reconstruction and Development Program (RDP). Former National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) economist Alec Erwin was named Deputy Minister for Finance. Former Mineworkers head Cyril Ramaphosa, elected General Secretary of the ANC in 1991, will exert great influence on the shape of the permanent new constitution as the chair of the parliamentary constitution-writing body.

  • Re-Imagining the Tapestry of Teaching: an Investigation Into Student Teachers’ Outcomes-Based Education (Obe) Instructional Practices
    i RE-IMAGINING THE TAPESTRY OF TEACHING: AN INVESTIGATION INTO STUDENT TEACHERS’ OUTCOMES-BASED EDUCATION (OBE) INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES. by BLANDINA TABITHA MAKINA submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF LITERATURE AND PHILOSOPHY in the subject ENGLISH at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROF L VILJOEN AUGUST 2011 ii DECLARATION Student number 3195-600-8 I declare that RE-IMAGINING THE TAPESTRY OF TEACHING: AN INVESTIGATION INTO STUDENT TEACHERS’ OUTCOMES-BASED EDUCATION (OBE) INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged my means of complete references. Signed: Date: BLANDINA MAKINA iii ABSTRACT This study focussed on teacher training in the context of distance education. It investigated the impact on practice of an English methodology course offered by Unisa’s Department of English Studies at certificate level. The unit of analysis was a group of eight student teachers registered for the module ACEEN26 Teaching English: General Principles offered by Unisa’s Department of English Studies. This module aims to help students to understand the approaches that underpin Outcomes-based Education (OBE) and how these translate into practice in the English First Additional Language (FAL) classrooms. To investigate the participants’ classroom practices, the study adopted an open and inductive approach aimed at gauging their thinking with regard to teaching, learning, assessment and how these understandings reflected OBE practices. The aim was to determine how the eight students made sense of this phenomenon given their own epistemologies within the unique contexts in which they worked.

  • Educational Change in South Africa, 1994-2003 (Executive Summary)
    Part 2 Executive Summary The focus of this case study of education reform is limited to three specific interventions by the South African government: education finance reform, curriculum reform, and the teacher rationalization pro- cess. These three interventions were sampled from a rich mix of reforms because they were initiated very early in the democratic transition and because there is a reasonably sound empirical base from which to make judgments about the efficacy and effectiveness of these interventions. This case study of educational reform in South Africa will present a critical analysis of the reform goals, design, imple- mentation, and impact for each of the three interventions. In the end, the objective of this case report is to contribute new insights and understandings to the global knowledge base on education reforms in developing countries. The post-apartheid government of 1994 inherited one of the most unequal societies in the world. Decades of social and economic discrimination against black South Africans left a legacy of income inequality along racial lines. Furthermore HIV/AIDS constitutes a massive threat to development in Southern Africa. In the general population, 11 percent of South Africans from all walks of life are HIV- positive, with 15.2 percent of this group aged between 15 and 49. Higher rates of infection are found in children aged between 2 and 14. HIV/AIDS impacts education policy reform goals in a number of ways. It erodes participation gains that resulted from reform attempts to broaden access to primary, secondary, and tertiary education given that more and more students either die or drop out of school because of personal illness (HIV/AIDS- infected) or family illness (HIV/AIDS-affected).
