ActionSA is deeply alarmed by the unacceptable state of school readiness in the Francis Baard District. The Department of Education has failed to allocate the necessary funding to schools, leaving many Quintile 1 and 2 schools unable to provide even the most basic resources.

This mismanagement undermines the principle of free basic education and places an undue financial strain on already struggling households.
