Listen | The Daily News Wrap Monday 7 December
Good Morning South Africa. This is the Daily News Wrap for Monday 7 December.
It’s a new, a week into December – but a familiar top story. A crisis is looming over matric exams, after the South African Democratic Teachers’ Union has called on students to boycott the rewriting of papers.
It was announced last week that matrics will have to rewrite the Maths and Physical Sciences papers that were leaked prior to being written, unions have labelled the move unnecessary and have indicated their intention to compel students to boycott the rewrite as they launch court proceedings against the Department of Basic Education.
The scandal has also churned out more drama as reports emerge that some of the country’s “top achievers” are among the majority of students found to have had access to the Maths paper that was leaked in November.
