A conversation about our hopes and dreams for education in Mariannridge

“Desperation is an emotion which I seldom feel, except in relation to education, for I believe very deeply that for most of our children, a solid education represents the only means available for ending the cycle of family poverty. Skills come later. Economic growth comes later. Social cohesion lies far in the distance. What matters is that children complete 12 years of schooling with the ability to read, write, reason and calculate and to express confidence for purposes of further studies, skills training and higher education”
Professor Jonathan Jansen in an open letter to President Jacob Zuma
