Should the matric pass requirement change to passing six subjects with 50% or more?

Build One South Africa leader Mmusi Maimane has big plans for educational reform in South Africa, including new requirements for passing matric.

“A matric certificate should be issued on the basis of passing six subjects with 50% or more. 50% is the real pass mark. Anything else is deception of South Africans,” Maimane argued.with no access to higher education programmes requires a pupil achieving at least 40% in three subjects, including their home language, and to pass three other subjects with a minimum of 30%.

Maimane said the current pass mark is “not right” and called for interventions for those who do not reach the 50% plus in six subjects requirement.
