Report Coverage

This report on the education sector in South Africa includes information on public and private education and training, including the distribution of schools, private colleges and public universities, number of learners and pass rates, education levels, and expenditure. It looks at the state of the sector, including online learning, policy developments, corruption and mismanagement, notable players, corporate actions, regulatory developments, and influencing factors such as training and skills development and school fees. There are profiles of 45 companies and education-related institutions including notable players in private basic education such as Curro, ADvTECH, Inspired Schools and Spark Schools online learning players such as Optimi, and post-school education and training institutions such as Curro. In the public sector, there are profiles of major universities and departments.

Introduction

• Access to education has improved significantly since 1994, but many people continue to face barriers to education, and 147,807 children did not attend school in 2022. \r\n
• Despite high levels of government expenditure, the public education system continues to produce poor outcomes. \r\n
• Demand for private education continues to grow, with enrolments doubling over the past decade. \r\n
• Notable developments include the deregistration of some Educor colleges, and the appointment of new ministers in basic and higher education.

Trends

• Continued demand for private education with enrolment growth outpacing public institutions.
• Edtech is a high growth subsector with coding and robotics increasingly being incorporated into the curriculum.
• Greater focus on early childhood development is driving demand for pre-school teachers, particularly in underserved communities and rural areas.
• Strong demand for online learning and hybrid learning.
• The use of AI in education is rapidly gaining momentum.

Opportunities

• Developing or providing accommodation for tertiary students.
• Edtech, notably coding, robotics and AI, is a high growth subsector.
• Online learning programmes, including online short courses and continuous professional development courses.
• Private education, including in the rest of Africa.
• Providing early childhood development programmes and support services.
• The rapidly growing English language teaching subsector.

Challenges

• A high skills mismatch.
• AI presents significant risks, notably as regards academic integrity, data privacy, bias and the potential displacement or replacement of educators with AI tutors.
• Corruption, maladministration and mismanagement.
• In tertiary institutions, failure rates are high and the completion rate low.
• Inadequate capacity at tertiary institutions.
• The quality of education provided by most public schools is inadequate. Learning outcomes continue to be undermined by the shortage of adequately qualified teachers, mismanagement and poor school infrastructure.
• The relatively limited availability of early childhood learning programmes in rural areas and poor communities.
• There is a shortage of schools for learners with special needs.

Outlook

• With new ministers at the helm, the education system is under review. \r\n
• Improving learning outcomes will require getting the basics right, interventions, collaboration and public-private partnerships. \r\n
• A growing focus on technical and vocational skills is expected to lead to greater investment in the technical and vocational training subsector. \r\n
• With public education facing systemic challenges, private education is expected to grow. \r\n
• The short- to medium-term focus will be on enrolments rather than building new private schools and colleges. \r\n
• There is potential for acquisitions in edtech and higher education institutions.\r\n
• Continued demand for online learning is expected to persist. \r\n
• Extensive staff training will be critical to ensure that AI is properly implemented.

Report Coverage

This report on education in South Africa provides an overview of the state of education in South Africa and includes public and private education statistics and information on budgets, fees, enrolments, and trends. It includes public and private sector institutions and examines their enrolment and performance, corporate actions and developments. There are profiles of 53 companies including private sector players ADvTECH, Curro, Stadio and Educor, the major universities, and home education companies such as Clonard and Optimi Home.

Introduction

• Despite receiving about 20% of the national budget for two or more decades, South Africa has a dysfunctional public schooling system. \r\n
• The education system is characterised by crumbling infrastructure, overcrowded classrooms and poor educational outcomes. \r\n
• The poor quality of public schools and increasing number of people struggling to find a place at university and public colleges is driving enrolments at private schools and tertiary colleges. \r\n
• While school children and students have returned to classroom teaching and in-person lectures, education providers expect to continue to incorporate digital technologies in learning programmes.

Strengths

• An effective independent (private) school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government’s priority sectors.
• South African universities are among the best ranked universities in Africa in various rankings.
• South Africa’s higher education sector attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• Accommodation shortages for students.
• Infrastructural backlog in many public schools, with little or no access to digital platforms.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• Public tertiary education institutions are unable to service demand from all students for placements.
• The quality of education in many public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in literacy, mathematics, and science.
• The school curriculum does not equip learners with skills for the technologically-driven world of work.

Opportunities

• A shortage of special needs schools, makes this is a possible area of opportunity for school operators.
• Distance education as technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the internet.
• Growing demand for higher education in South Africa and on the continent.
• Growth in the private higher education sector as the demand for high quality and more varied higher education increases.
• Growth of private schools if the public schooling system remains in crisis.
• Home schooling, which despite recording lower growth following the lifting of COVID-19 measures, is still growing.
• Providing or developing accommodation for tertiary education students.
• Provision of early childhood development services may grow if the government’s proposal to make two years compulsory is enacted.
• Provision of public education by private operators through “collaboration schools”.

Threats

• Collaboration schools, which are being piloted in the Western Cape, face being scrapped if Equal Education wins its court challenge against the Western Cape government.
• Continuing failure to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in maths and science.
• Growing concern over the sustainability of student funding which more than doubled between 2018 and 2022.
• Shortage of suitably-qualified staff.
• Some universities have seen a decline in their global ranking in recent years.
• The tougher economic climate is putting pressure on fees and cost increases.

Outlook

• The poor economy will see some education providers struggle, particularly with fee collection.\r\n
• Private education is likely to continue to see strong growth in enrolments, driven by increasing demand for quality education, which the state fails to provide. \r\n
• The shortage of spaces at public universities and tertiary education institutions will continue to drive the growth in enrolments at private tertiary educations. \r\n
• Consolidation of private providers is likely as small schools or colleges are snapped up by large players. \r\n
• Despite lockdown measures being removed, the adoption of online learning will continue, driven by the need to improve learning outcomes and reduce overheads.

Report Coverage

This report focuses on South Africa’s public and private education sector, including information on the state and size of the sector, education budgets, learning outcomes, developments in the public and private sectors and the effect of coronavirus on the sector and education outcomes. There are profiles of 53 companies and institutions, including state institutions such as universities and education departments, major education companies such as Curro, ADvTECH and Educor and business schools such as Regent and Regenesys.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s education sector, which despite receiving about 20% of the national budget, has a dysfunctional public schooling system and poor outcomes. According to Amnesty International, the country’s education system is characterised by crumbling infrastructure, overcrowded classrooms, and poor educational outcomes, all of which perpetuate inequality and, as a result, fail many of its children. The coronavirus pandemic has added to these challenges by disrupting the academic year and highlighting the sector’s need to rethink its approach to digital teaching platforms. The sector is also unprepared to equip students with the technological, critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary for a successful economy.

Strengths

• An effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government’s priority sectors.
• South Africa’s higher education sector attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• Accommodation shortages for students.
• Corruption and mismanagement at many schools.
• Infrastructural backlog in many public schools, with little or no access to digital platforms.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• The quality of education in many public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in literacy, mathematics, and science.
• The school curriculum does not equip learners with skills for the technologically-driven world of work.

Opportunities

• Distance education as technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the internet.
• Growing demand for higher education.
• Growth in the private higher education sector as the demand for high quality and more varied higher education increases.
• Growth of home schooling.
• Growth of private schools if the public schooling system remains in crisis.

Threats

• Continuing failure to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in maths and science.
• Instability at some higher education institutions.
• Not all teachers have digital teaching and technology skills.
• Shortage of suitably qualified staff.

Outlook

Education remains one of South Africa’s biggest challenges. The pandemic has disrupted the academic year and highlighted the importance of technology in education. South Africa is still struggling with educational equality as the numbers of under-resourced rural schools have not decreased in the last two decades. Amnesty International executive director, Shenilla Mohamed said the repeated failure of government to address issues affecting the education sector “is not only a question of accountability, it has consequences for the life chances of thousands of young people and the future of this country”.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s education sector, which is failing the country’s economy. Despite increased funding from the government, the quality of South Africa’s public education remains poor and youth unemployment is at its highest. The overall 2019/20 budget allocation for the Department of Basic Education (DBE) is R24.5bn, which is an increase of 3.4% from the 2018/19 allocation. However, 78% of South African children in grade 3 still cannot read for meaning. About 400,000 students who started grade one 12 years ago, did not reach grade 12 in 2018. In the higher education sector, universities can accommodate only 18% of South African matriculants. Of those 18%, about 47% will drop out and if distance learning is taken into account, that figure rises to 68%. Experts have also warned that South Africa’s education system is flooding the jobs market with graduates who do not possess the skills that match what the economy requires.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government\'s priority sectors.
• South Africa’s higher education sector attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• Corruption and mismanagement at many schools.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• The quality of education in many public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in literacy, mathematics and science.

Opportunities

• Distance education as technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the internet.
• Growing demand for higher education.
• Growth in the private higher education sector as the demand for high quality and more varied higher education increases.
• Growth of home-schooling.
• Growth of private schools as long as the public schooling system remains in crisis.

Threats

• Continuing failure to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in mathematics and science
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.
• Instability at higher education institutions.

Outlook

Education reduces poverty, boosts economic growth and increases income. Despite South Africa’s significant education budget, the quality of education is not improving, and the majority of learners do not get a strong foundation in basic literacy and numeracy. The independent school and home-schooling sectors are expected to continue to grow in response to poor public education. The high drop-out rate in the school and higher education sectors continues to increase, and South Africa’s education is failing the economy. Unless institutions of higher learning rework the curriculum to produce graduates with skills to match what the economy requires, the skills mismatch will continue.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s primary, secondary and tertiary education sectors, which continue to remain in a turmoil. Despite high levels of investment by the government, South African education lags behind comparable countries in literacy and numeracy. In 2017, the South African Child Gauge revealed that 58% of children cannot read fluently and with comprehension at the end of Grade 4. More than half the children who start in Grade 1 do not reach Grade 12 and usually drop out in Grade 10. In the higher education sector, 50-60% of South African students drop out after the first year and only a minority of students complete a three-year degree in the allotted time. The high rates of unemployment among young people also indicate that many are unprepared for life after school. Statistics show that the South African government spends 4.7% of revenue on tertiary education and training, which is about 0.75% of GDP. In 2018 a further R57bn was allocated to fund free tertiary education for first year students who qualify. However, this will not address the problem of the skills mismatch in the labour market. According to figures by Statistics South Africa, more than half of people aged between 15 and 24 are unemployed.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government\'s priority sectors.
• South Africa’s higher education sector attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• Corruption and mismanagement at many schools.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• The quality of education in many public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in literacy, mathematics and science.

Opportunities

• Distance education as technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the internet.
• Growing demand for higher education.
• Growth for private schools as long as the public schooling system remains in crisis.
• Growth for the home schooling sector.
• Growth for the private higher education sector as the demand for high quality and more varied higher education increases.

Threats

• Continuing failure to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in mathematics and science
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.
• Instability at higher education institutions.

Outlook

Despite increasing investments each year by the government, the quality of education in South Africa has hardly improved. The schooling system is failing learners long before they reach the final year and the high drop-out rate remains unaddressed. As a result of the dismal performance in the public education sector education, the independent school and home schooling sectors continue to grow. While government’s free education for first year students who qualify will result in increased number of enrolments, the higher education sector remains plagued by students dropping out after the first year, a shortage of academic staff, instability at campuses and the skills mismatch in the labour market. These factors are expected to contribute to the rapid growth of private higher education Institutions.

Report Coverage

The report on South Africa’s troubled Tertiary Education sector describes current conditions, the problems facing universities and TVETs and factors influencing the success of the sector. The report profiles 29 public and private universities as well as 16 correspondence and private colleges. Included is ADvTECH’s closest competitor, Curro, which acquired AFDA in August 2017 and expressed its intention of listing its Tertiary unit Stadio on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in September 2017.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s troubled Tertiary Education sector which is trying to recover from the effects of last year\'s violent protests against fee increases that caused many Higher Education institutions to temporarily close their doors. Statistics show that the South African government spends 4.7% of revenue on Tertiary Education and Training, which is about 0.75% of GDP. Although spending on post-school Education and Training is expected to reach R89.8bn by 2019/20, up from R68.7bn in 2016/2017, growing at an average annual rate of 9.2%, the sector still faces other significant challenges. These include high drop-out rates and a shortage of academic staff.

Strengths

• South Africa’s Higher Education sector is the most diverse in Africa and it attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• High drop-out rates.
• Higher Education is expensive.
• The sector is not providing the skills required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Opportunities

• Distance Education as Information Technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the Internet.
• Growing demand for Higher Education from students with an expected 1.6 million students enrolling at Higher Education Institutions across the country by 2030.
• Growth for the private sector as the demand for high quality and more varied Higher Education increases.

Threats

• Continuing failure of the General Education and Training (GET) sector to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.
• Recurring violence and unrest at Higher Education Institutions.

Outlook

South Africa\'s Higher Education sector will continue its struggle with the issue of expanding access to public universities and making Higher Education more affordable. Stakeholders believe that in order to ensure a better future for all South Africans, increased access to relevant Higher Education courses of a high standard is essential. This would result in a Higher Education system that could create employable citizens who would have the necessary skills to promote economic growth and sustainability in the country. In the meantime the high drop-out rates, the shortage of academic staff and the unrest on campuses are expected to contribute to the continued growth of private Higher Education Institutions.

Report Coverage

The South African Primary and Secondary Education Sector report describes current conditions and focuses on academic standards and initiatives to improve these standards. The report profiles 11 independent school groups and includes information on the number of government schools, teachers and learners in the country. Profiles for new entrants into the sector are also provided. These include Pembury Lifestyle Group (PLG), which in November 2016 listed its PLG Schools on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange’s Alternative Exchange, and Future Nation Schools (Pty) Ltd, which follows a project-based learning approach which tries to encourage learners to design, plan and execute extended projects by applying the theory they learn to solve real world problems.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s primary and secondary education sector which, according to experts, lags decades behind first world levels. South Africa’s Basic Education funding allocation has been increased to R751.9bn for 2018/19, an increase of R1.1bn from the 2016/2017 financial year. Despite government spending about 15% of the total budget on Basic Education, the public education sector remains in crisis and is still struggling to overcome poor literacy levels, poor Mathematics and Science results, a high drop-out rate and under-performing teachers. The failure of public school education to overcome these challenges, has however, continued to provide growth for the independent school sector, which has expanded rapidly throughout the country.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government\'s priority sectors.

Weaknesses

• Corruption and mismanagement at many schools.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• The quality of education in many South African public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in Literacy, Mathematics and Science.
• Under-spending of ASIDI resulting in learners still attending mud schools without electricity and water.

Opportunities

• Growth for private schools as long as the public schooling system remains in crisis.
• Growth for the home schooling sector.

Threats

• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in Mathematics and Science.
• Education will suffer further if CAPS is as unsuccessful as OBE.

Outlook

Providing quality education for all children across South Africa remains one of the most crucial challenges facing the country and in support of this National Treasury projects an increase of 7.4% in the sector’s budget in the next three fiscal years. With South Africa’s public education sector facing an ongoing crisis and academics asserting that they have not seen any real improvement in the quality of the country’s education despite increased spending, the independent school sector continues to grow. In addition, there has also been growth in the home schooling sector, which is expected to grow at about 20% per annum.

Report Coverage

The Tertiary Education report describes current conditions, attempts by government to improve the quality and accessibility of public Higher Education and factors that influence the success of the sector. The report profiles 44 role players in the sector including the University of Cape Town, rated Africa’s top university. Also profiled is the country’s largest private tertiary provider, ADvTECH Ltd, which reports that enrolments for B.Com and other business-related degrees at its Varsity College campuses are increasing year-on-year, and new entrant SANTS Private Higher Education Institution (Pty) Ltd, which focuses on teacher education.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s Tertiary Education sector which is struggling to overcome significant challenges. These include insufficient funding, a shortage of academic staff, the gap in standards between Secondary and Higher Education, high drop-out rates and the skills mismatch in the labour market. Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande has acknowledged the challenges facing the sector, especially with regard to the university fee increases which resulted in the Fees Must Fall protests across the country’s universities in October 2015. In his 2016 Budget Speech, Minister Nzimande reported that the Department’s budget would increase at an annual average 9.8%, from R42bn in 2015/16 to R55.3bn in 2018/19 in an effort to produce graduates with the skills that are urgently required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Strengths

• South Africa’s Higher Education sector is the most diverse in Africa and it attracts many students from the rest of Africa.

Weaknesses

• High drop-out rates.
• Higher Education is expensive.
• Ranked last for the quality of Maths and Science education at Higher Education level.
• The sector is not providing the skills required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Opportunities

• Distance Education as information technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the Internet. (MOOCs)
• Growing demand for Higher Education from students with an expected 1.6 million students enrolling at Higher Education institutions across the country by 2030.
• Growth for the private sector as the demand for high quality and more varied Higher Education increases.

Threats

• Continuing failure of the General Education and Training (GET) sector to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Continuing violence and unrest at Higher Education Institutions.
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.

Outlook

Despite South Africa\'s investment in education being among the highest in the world, the country’s Higher Education sector continues to perform poorly in comparison to other countries and many graduates are ill-equipped to enter the workplace and function effectively. Analysts assert that until the sector is able to overcome the numerous challenges that include university funding issues, high drop-out rates and a shortage of academic staff, the South African economy will continue to suffer from the shortage of skills in the workplace. Role players expect that enrolments at private Higher Education institutions will continue growing as a result of the unrest on public university campuses and because of the private institutions’ “work-readiness approach” and smaller class sizes.

Report Coverage

The Primary and Secondary Education report describes current conditions, how the crisis in education has fuelled the growth of independent/private schools and initiatives to improve the quality of education in state schools. The report profiles Curro Holdings, South Africa’s largest private education firm in the primary and secondary sector operating 110 schools on 47 campuses. Its closest competitor, Advtech, which over the last two years has spent R2bn buying and expanding schools, is also profiled as is eAdvance (Pty) Ltd t/a SPARK Schools, a network of less expensive private schools based in Gauteng.

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s primary and secondary education sector which remains in a state of crisis. South Africa spends more on education than any other African country, approximately 6% of its GDP. Basic education funding has been increasing annually and will increase from R204bn in 2016/2017 to R254bn in 2018/19. Despite this, the public education sector is still struggling to overcome numerous challenges, which include a high drop-out rate, corruption and mismanagement of schools, unqualified teachers and poor Mathematics and Science results. The poor quality of public school education has however, fuelled the growth of independent schools, which continue to expand countrywide.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools
• Education is one of government\'s priority sectors and R204bn has been allocated to the DBE for the 2016/2017 financial year, increasing to R254bn in 2018/19.

Weaknesses

• Corruption and mismanagement at many schools.
• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• The quality of education in many South African public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in Literacy, Mathematics and Science.
• Under-spending of ASIDI resulting in learners still attending mud schools without electricity and water.

Opportunities

• Growth for private schools as long as the public schooling system remains in crisis.

Threats

• Continuing shortage of teachers, especially in Mathematics and Science.
• Education will suffer further if CAPS is as unsuccessful as OBE.

Outlook

South Africa’s high unemployment is closely linked to inadequate education provision and despite the country having one of the highest rates of government investment in education in the world, the education sector remains in crisis. The country’s poor results for Mathematics and Science is of great concern especially since 93 of the top 100 scarce skills in South Africa require a good pass in Mathematics. While attempts are being made to address the quality of Mathematics and Science education to better equip learners with the necessary skills and knowledge to compete in a modern economy, the sector is also struggling with other issues including a high drop-out rate, unqualified teachers, language barriers and the need for proper early childhood development infrastructure. Stakeholders believe that until these issues are addressed successfully and the public education sector improves, South Africa’s private school sector will continue to grow as more dissatisfied parents of children at public schools turn to the private sector to educate their children.

Report Coverage

This report focuses on the current state of South Africa’s tertiary education sector, the challenges it faces and the factors influencing its success. The report profiles 30 state and private universities, including the South African campus of Australian university, Monash, and 17 private college groups where student enrolments have increased to approximately 100,000. Profiled are the Tertiary School in Business Administration (TSiBA), a unique private, not-for-profit business school that gives emerging leaders an opportunity to study high quality, accredited academic courses, as well as the Independent Institute of Education (Pty) Ltd , which incorporates the tertiary segment of AdvTech, already a leading private provider in the primary and secondary education sector.\r\n

Introduction

This report focuses on South Africa’s higher education sector, which is still plagued by numerous problems. Despite the budget for overall education in South Africa progressively improving over the last few years, the Minister of Higher Education reported to parliament that in order to fund all new applications for higher education in South Africa, a budget of R51bn was required. The Higher Education Department’s budget, which is R9.5bn for 2015, will cover 425,095 new entrants, 28,646 more than 2014 but “a significant number of applicants will be denied access to higher education and the backlog will continue to build up, unabated.”

Strengths

• Increasing number of private institutions.
• South Africa’s higher education sector is the most diverse in Africa and attracts many students from Africa.

Weaknesses

• High drop-out rates.
• Higher education is expensive.
• The sector is not providing the skills required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Opportunities

• An expected 1.6 million students enrolling at higher education institutions across the country by 2030.
• Distance education as information technology becomes more advanced and there is more widespread access to the Internet. (MOOCs)
• Growing demand for higher education from students.
• Growth for the private sector as the demand for high quality and more varied higher education increases.

Threats

• Continuing failure of the General Education and Training (GET) sector to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.

Outlook

At the launch of the White Paper, the Minister of the Department of Higher Education and Training stated, “South Africa needs a single, coherent, differentiated, highly articulated and yet diverse, non-racial, post-school education and training system with all sectors playing their role as part of a coherent but differentiated whole.” However, the sector needs to overcome a number of challenges including high drop-out rates, a shortage of qualified staff, the skills mismatch in the labour market as well as a serious mismatch in the demand and supply for places in higher education institutions. All these problems are hampering the success of the sector and thus failing to provide the skills required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Report Coverage

This report focuses on South Africa’s primary and secondary education sectors, factors influencing their success and the opportunities for growth in the private education sector. The report also profiles the Department of Education as well as seven of the major independent educational groups, including the sector leaders Curro Holdings Ltd, which currently has 42 registered schools and AdvTech Ltd which spent R2bn acquiring and expanding schools in 2014.\r\n

Introduction

In 2013/2014 the South African government spent R227bn on education, which is equivalent to 6.5% of GDP and 19.7% of total government expenditure. Despite the government allocating R19.68bn for 2014/15 to the Department of Basic Education (DBE) compared to R17.592bn for 2013/14, the education system remains in crisis and is confronted by numerous challenges, including a high drop-out rate, inadequate content knowledge of many teachers and poor English, Science and Mathematics results. This report focuses on South Africa’s primary and secondary education sectors and the opportunities for growth in the private education sector.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which includes low-fee private schools.
• Education is one of government\'s priority sectors and R19.68bn has been allocated to the DBE for the 2014/2015 financial year.

Weaknesses

• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• Lack of ICT-related knowledge among many South African teachers in public schools.
• The quality of education in many South African public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in Literacy, Mathematics and Science.

Opportunities

• Growth for private schools as long as the public schooling system remains in crisis.
• Improvement in the quality of teaching as a result of the re-introduction of teacher training colleges.

Threats

• Continued shortage of teachers, especially in Maths and Science.
• Education will suffer further if CAPS is as unsuccessful as OBE.

Outlook

University of Stellenbosch Economics Professor, Servaas van der Berg reiterated, “Education is a critical determinant of success in the job market and the failure of the school system is central to the failure to increase employment and reduce inequality.” Even with the increase in the Department of Basic Education’s 2014/2015 budget to R19.68bn, many stakeholders believe that improvement in the overall quality of education will take many years, and there were differing opinions about how successful the new CAPS system is likely to be. The poor performance of the public school sector has however, provided opportunities for growth in the private school education sector, which is expected to continue increasing as more parents opt to send their children to private schools.

Introduction

The need for an effective higher and further education and training sector is essential if South Africa is to achieve its 2030 vision outlined in the National Development Plan (NDP). However, despite spending about 20% of its government budget or 6.4% of gross domestic product (GDP) on education, Prof MS Makhanya, Principal and Vice Chancellor at University of South Africa (Unisa), believes that, “The present picture of South African higher education is a bleak one.” This, according to the Green Paper for Post School Education and Training 2012, is because, “The post school system is not meeting the needs of the economy and society as a whole and training is inadequate in quantity, diversity and in many but not all instances, quality.” The White Paper, which was published in January 2014, attempts to address the challenges that face the country.

Strengths

• The need for an effective higher and further education and training sector is essential if South Africa is to achieve its 2030 vision\noutlined in the National Development Plan (NDP). However, despite spending about 20% of its government budget or 6.4% of gross\ndomestic product (GDP) on education, Prof MS Makhanya, Principal and Vice Chancellor at University of South Africa (Unisa),\nbelieves that, “The present picture of South African higher education is a bleak one.” This, according to the Green Paper for Post\nSchool Education and Training 2012, is because, “The post school system is not meeting the needs of the economy and society as a\nwhole and training is inadequate in quantity, diversity and in many but not all instances, quality.” The White Paper, which was\npublished in January 2014, attempts to address the challenges that face the country.

Weaknesses

• High drop-out rates.
• Higher education is expensive
• The sector is not providing the skills required to grow South Africa’s economy.

Opportunities

• An expected 4.5 million students a year enrolling at\nuniversities, colleges and other post-school institutions\nacross the country by 2030.
• Distance education as information technology becomes\nmore advanced and there is more widespread access to the\nInternet.
• Growth for the private sector as the demand for high\nquality higher education increases.
• Increased funding for vocational and further education\nsector.

Threats

• Continuing failure of the General Education and Training (GET) sector to ensure that learners are sufficiently literate and numerate.
• Increasing shortage of qualified staff.

Outlook

South Africa’s higher and further education and training sector remains under pressure. The sector needs to overcome a number of challenges before the aim of the government’s White Paper to “create a framework for a diverse, integrated post school system,” is likely to be achieved. Limited resources, the skills mismatch in the South African labour market, high drop-out rates and the shortage of qualified staff are some of the barriers that continue to the hamper the success of the sector, in particular the public higher and FET divisions. These challenges, however, provide opportunities for private higher and further education institutions to expand and offer a range of FET and higher education courses.

Introduction

Although the late Nelson Mandela believed that, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world,\" South Africa’s public education system remains in crisis. Literacy rates and mathematics and science skills are on the decline at government schools and almost three-quarters of the 2013 National Senior Certificate students who qualified for university study did not meet the minimum requirements for the degrees that meet scarce skills. The World Economic Forum’s Competitiveness Index for 2012–2013 ranks South Africa’s overall education system at 140 out of 144 countries and its maths and science education at 143 out of 144. This is despite the fact that South Africa spends about 20% of its budget or 6.4% of GDP on education. In the 2014/2015 financial year R254bn has been allocated to education, considerably more than in other emerging market economies. This report focuses on the primary and secondary education sectors and the growing opportunities in the private education arena.

Strengths

• A thriving, effective independent school sector which\nincludes low-fee private schools.
• Education is high on government\'s priorities and R254bn\nhas been allocated for the 2014/2015 financial year.

Weaknesses

• Insufficient number of qualified teachers.
• Lack of adequately resourced public schools.
• Lack of ICT-related knowledge among many South African teachers in public schools.
• Lack of safety in many public schools.
• Quality of education in most South African public schools is poor, with low levels of achievement in literacy, mathematics and science.

Opportunities

• Growth for private schools as long as the public schooling\nsystem remains in crisis.
• Improvement in the quality of teaching as a result of the reintroduction\nof teacher training colleges.
• Introduction of contract schools model would provide\nopportunities for private providers and has the potential to\nimprove education in disadvantaged and low-income\ncommunities

Threats

• Continued shortage of teachers, especially in Maths and Science.
• Education will suffer further if CAPS is as unsuccessful as OBE.

Outlook

With the country’s public education system failing to provide South Africa’s youth with quality education, the demand for private school education continues to increase. Companies such as Curro Holdings and Advtech have stated they will continue building new schools to meet the increasing demand and are positive that there are ample opportunities in the affordable private school sector. According to Eustace Davie, director of the Free Market Foundation, “Opening up education to low-cost private schools run by educational entrepreneurs will not provide an overnight solution to this country’s schooling problems but will set South Africa on a path to educational recovery.”
