Western Cape Education MEC David Maynier visited Hector Peterson Secondary School in Wallacedene, Kraaifontein for the release of the results on Friday. The school achieved a 92.6% pass rate, an increase of 14.1% from the previous year.
“The school has produced excellent results this year, despite the surrounding community facing so many challenges.
“Moreover, 55% of their candidates achieved bachelor’s passes – up from 40.2% last year. And they did this all while increasing the number of candidates writing from 204 to 229,” said Maynier.
The WCED encouraged learners who are disappointed with their results to apply for a remark or recheck or to write the supplementary exams in June.
“There are measures in place to receive counselling for anyone who is disappointed with their results, either by approaching their school, which will put them in touch with the relevant people in the district offices or by phoning the Safe Schools Hotline – 0800 45 4647,” wrote the department.
