Together with a guest from the Department of Higher Education and Training, the conversation explores how learners can choose subjects that match their interests, strengths, and future career goals, while also understanding the difference between designated and non-designated subjects, the implications of Mathematics versus Mathematical Literacy, and the alternative pathways available after Grade 9, including TVET options. The episode also introduces the National Career Advice Portal as a practical tool to help learners connect subject choices to career opportunities and make informed decisions about their future.
