The department of basic education is set to make a decision regarding grade 12 pupils who have missed exams due to the protests in several parts of the country.

The department said it had noted with concern the continued community protests disrupting the National Senior Certificate examinations.

In Mpumalanga, at six centres in Nkangala District, 1,127 candidates could not write mathematics and mathematical literacy paper 2 due to the community protests on Monday. “The matter is under discussion as to when these candidates will be given another opportunity to write the affected papers,” said basic education spokesperson Elijah Mhlanga.

He said writing in the morning session on Tuesday proceeded smoothly in all centres after police intervened and cleared the roads.
