In 10 days, Minister Angie Motshekga will announce the 2023 Matric Results and she will also acknowledge the successes of the few remarkable learners who have excelled against formidable odds. 

Dr Louis Benjamin, education consultant and author of the Basic Concepts Programme, cautions readers against falling for the illusions of educational miracles that will be paraded at next week’s gala event. 
Instead, he believes there should be more discussion around the overall basic education enterprise where matric is but one point in a 12-to-15-year journey.

Dr Benjamin joins us on the line as we try to address the harsh realities that need attention in order for us to see substantive change, instead of fleeting celebrations.
