Tarabella - Marchesi, Ms NI to ask the Minister of Basic Education to ask the Minister of Basic Education
Whether there is a progress report on the Mother Tongue-Based Bilingual Education Pilot Programme in the Eastern Cape; if not, why not; if so, what is the current status of the pilot programme?
Reply:
The Eastern Cape is phasing-in Mother Tongue-Based Bilingual Education per district. All districts are implementing the programme in a phased-in manner across all districts in 2004 schools. A report on Mother Tongue-Based Bilingual Education was disseminated in 2019/2020.
