The Department of Basic Education is embroiled in a controversy.

So far, three parties are heading to court to stop the rewriting of Test 2 in Mathematics and Test 2 in Physical Sciences, after the exam tests were leaked.

Motshekga said, “Teachers, they say that a Limpopo organization, so they were explaining the arguments to me, they have summoned us all, Umalusi, all MEC. We are going to court. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what the commitment will be because there are two things here. Either we write or we don’t rewrite. “

The minister says that the rewrite is necessary because most of the provinces were affected.

“There is nothing more important for a certificate than its integrity and credibility. If it is questioned and threatened, I don’t think there will be any debate there. If Umalusi said that they would not recognize the results of those documents, then the debate is closed, nor I can even present my personal views, because the important thing is the impact on the children. “

The quality insurer Umalusi supports the department.

It has agreed that the credibility and integrity of the results are at stake if they are not rewritten.
