Results
The impact of the programme will be established once the ANA and NSC results become available in 2014/5. There is in principle an agreement with the department to extend the programme in the 2014/5 financial year.

​

The NSC results of the PMDP schools improved by an average of 6.7%, compared to a prior drop of 0.4%. Unfortunately, ANA results could not be compared to the same period.

​

Majority of schools improved on learner and teacher attendance as well as curriculum coverage tracking practice.

​

The province has subsequently commissioned a rollout to 320 across all 4 districts from 2011.

“What I appreciated about the programme is that it is more practical. It wants to ensure that practical application is learnt. That is what makes it different.”
