The response below was sourced from the Gauteng Department of Education.

(1)(a)

  • The Department compensates schools according to funding models prescribed by Norms and Standards of School Funding.
  • The budget is allocated to compensate public ordinary schools in respect of school fee exemption.
  • The budget is then shared in equal proportions amongst all qualifying applicant schools.

(1)(b)

The State has a responsibility, as stipulated in section 34(1) of the South African Schools Act, to fund public schools on an equitable basis in order to ensure the proper exercise of rights of learners in the provision of education. However, where the State cannot fund schooling totally out of its own budget, the school is obliged to take all reasonable measures within its means to supplement the resources supplied by the state in order to improve the quality of education provided by the school to all learners at the school as stipulated in section 36(1) of the Act.
