Support “Only the rich and middle class will benefit from free education as they are likely to qualify for university.” “What is easy and morally defensible is free higher education for the very poor, like those who earn below R120 000 a year.” 18 The Pan African Student Movement The South African Further Education & Training Student Association ( Safetsa) South African Students Congress (SASCO) South African Union of Students (SAUS) BUT Should not discriminate against low cost private providers such as Richfield 19 The National Development Plan for South Africa as well as White Paper on Post School Education, records that the Department of Higher Education and Training recognizes that independent private institutions play an important role in the post-school education and training environment. Any reconceptualization of a post school education and training system would, most definitely be incomplete without reference to both public and private spheres. 20 The National Development Plan also requires the higher education sector to increase enrolment levels annually from 950 000 in 2010 to 1.6 million by 2030. Unless we find ways to reduce the costs of delivering higher education, an increased enrolment will require increased funding. Private Providers provide a large selection of certificate, degree and diploma products at affordable prices to cater for the large majority of South African students, who do not gain access to Public Universities. 21 2010 NEET = 2.7m 2014 NEET = 3.0M (CHET) 22 Private Institutions can provide the shortfall at a lower cost & more efficient rollout Some of the increased capacity required already exists in the private education sector for eg. Richfield has 8000 under utilised seats & a further 10 000 moth balled seats which could be brought to economic use at short notice 23 BCom Degree (1st year of study) R80 000 R70 000 R60 000 R50 000 R40 000 R30 000 R20 000 R10 000 R0 Richfield Mancosa Damelin CTI Varsity College Boston Rosebank (previously PC Training & Business College) 24 Although accredited by the Council on Higher Education (which also “accredits” public universities), Private Higher Education Institutions are not allowed to call themselves "universities" in South Africa. Neither are they allowed to benefit from the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) or any direct state funding. In addition, they are required to pay income taxes on any surpluses they make. 25 In spirit of the vision of the National Development Plan, it is imperative for the South African Government and in particular the Department of Higher Education and Training to seriously consider funding private education in order to ensure the success of the country's post school education and training system in the near future and the substantial ETD capacity that has already been created. 26 Of the 1 million children who enter Grade 1, only 100 000 will enter university, and 53 000 will graduate after 6 years (Van den Berg, 2015). Very poor graduation rates – 30% graduate in 3 years, 56% in 5 years (if UNISA included it drops well below 50%). National diploma even worse: below 50%.

Proposed: A voucher system of R25 000 (> R120 000 but less than R180 000 pa) per year of study, subject to success in the prior year. This should be payable to accredited, registered and Approved PHEI’s Directly. 29 Current: To qualify for NSFAS (less than R120 000) means that most of the actual middle class could be classified as “poor” – and they account for 75% of the population. Proposed: The scheme be continued but the discrimination against Low Private Providers be eliminated. And…. 30 Role players have to find a balance between helping poor students without giving privileged students unfair favour. 31 The major contributing factor for student de- registration is lack of funding which arises from: Disadvantaged background Public University fees too costly Bursary applications not successful 32 Recognise Private HE providers & make NSFAS Funds available to students attending PHEI’s.

  • The Labour Court of South Africa, Johannesburg
    1 THE LABOUR COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA, JOHANNESBURG Reportable Case no: JS72/17 In the matter between: SOLIDARITY OBO SW PARKINSON Applicant and DAMELIN (PTY) LTD Respondent Heard: 29 May 2018 Delivered: 07 June 2018 Summary: Back-pay is an obligation that flows from the order of reinstatement – the employee’s tender of his or her services is inconsequential. JUDGMENT Nkutha-Nkontwana J. Background [1] In this matter the applicant (Solidarity) is suing the respondent (Damelin) by way of a stated case for a back-pay in the amount of R420 000.00 consequent to an order reinstating its member, Mr Parkinson. Damelin had dismissed Mr Parkinson on 15 May 2012. Solidarity unsuccessfully challenged his dismissal at the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration (CCMA). The commissioner, Mr Sithole, found that his dismissal was procedurally and substantively fair. 2 [2] Solidarity launched the review proceedings and succeeded. In a judgement delivered on 2 December 2014, this Court, per Bleazard AJ, reviewed and set aside the award, replacing it with an order reinstating Mr Parkinson retrospective to 1 January 2014. Damelin appealed the judgment but was unsuccessful. The Labour Appeal Court, in judgment delivered on 10 January 2017, dismissed the appeal with costs. [3] I pause to allude to the fact that Mr Parkinson secured employment with his current employer on 21 August 2014. Soon after receiving the judgment by Bleazard AJ, Solidarity addressed a letter to Damelin, through its attorneys, proposing a discussion on compensation instead of reinstatement. Damelin was seemingly not indulgent; instead, it instituted the appeal proceedings. [4] On 17 January 2017, Damelin’s attorneys addressed a letter to Solidarity stating the following: ‘We refer to the above matter and note the judgment handed down by the Labour Appeal Court on 10 January 2017.

  • Distance Education at Traditionally Contact Higher Education Institutions
    Distance Education at Traditionally Contact Higher Education Institutions REPORT PREPARED FOR THE SOUTH AFRICAN COUNCIL ON HIGHER EDUCATION Introduction In the second half of 1999, in response to a concern raised by the Council on Higher Education (CHE), SAIDE undertook a research process examining distance education practices at traditionally contact public higher education institutions. The research was conducted under the auspices of the Higher Education branch of the Department of Education. The aim of this work has been to understand better the nature of these practices, and to use this understanding to inform policy developments in South African higher education. The statistical analysis was to be conducted by the national Department, and is not incorporated into this report. In this summary report in Part One, we outline key trends emerging from our research work, then, in Part Two, we make a limited number of recommendations drawn from our findings. The summary is supplemented by in-depth appendices capturing the details of our findings. In the interests of brevity, we have not incorporated these into the summary itself, but have ensured that all observations made in this report are substantiated by the research we have undertaken. In this regard, we have drawn on a range of primary research tasks: Case studies of selected programmes that described themselves, in some form or another, as using distance education methods. These case studies were written on the basis of institutional visits and interviews conducted with officials of providing institutions. SAIDE’s previous work with traditionally contact higher education institutions, where services such as workshops, materials development, evaluations and research were rendered.

  • JE Survey South Africa-2
    Journalism education survey: South Africa Compiled by Anthea Garman with Vanessa Malila, Mia van der Merwe & Jeanne du Toit, Rhodes University, School of Journalism & Media Studies 1. What is the framework of higher education and situating journalism education in that? South Africa’s education system is divided into three levels – primary, secondary and tertiary which consists of universities, universities of technology and further education and training colleges. Journalism education is taught in the universities and universities of technology. The universities of technology are fairly recent additions to the tertiary education framework and many of them were “merged” into already-existing universities under a plan to revise the academic landscape by the SA Minister of Education in 2003. Before the mergers they were called technikons and their journalism teaching components had a strong focus on practical journalism without the theoretical media studies, cultural studies or communication studies components other universities were teaching. Typically two years of study with one spent in a newsroom resulted in a diploma in journalism. When they were merged with other institutions or became universities of technology they began to offer degrees and so revised their curricula adding more theoretical courses to reflect this enhanced status. Many of these institutions still produce graduates considered by many editors as more likely to “hit the ground running” when they apply for jobs in South African newsrooms (see http://mg.co.za/article/2007-10-16-the-best-journalism-schools-in-sa ). The universities consist of both public institutions and private institutions although there are few of these (among them Monash, an Australian university, Midrand and Varsity College) and private institutions did not exist in this arena until the post-apartheid era.
