Standing in the Gap - [January 2012 - Open Letter to Education Leaders]

In 2012 Eastern Cape started off on a very shaky footing when a three week go slow ground teaching to a halt in many of our embattled schools. Together with fellow citizens, SOSAC published an open letter to voice concerns on the matter. This letter appeared as a sponsored advertorial in the The Herald and Daily Dispatch newspapers in the Eastern Cape on Friday 17 February. A slightly different version of this letter was sent to the offices of Minister A. Motshekga, Premier N. Kiviet, MEC M. Makhuphula and Superintendent-General Adv. M. Mannya during the four week go-slow of January 2012. Click here for a link to the scanned image of the letter as it appeared in the press: http://imfundo.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/letter.jpg
