The system was tested by an initial cohort of 2 300 pre-service teachers from Wits. An additional 6 000 students from seven other universities joined in, and plans are in place for another 24 000 to join in the coming weeks.
We are pleased to share the MasterCard Foundation's live stream launch of the report: Secondary Education in Africa: Preparing Youth for the Future of Work.
