Hon Speaker, applicants looking for placement at the University of Zululand are facing acceptance challenges at the university's Faculty of Education.
Many students have been on the premises of the university since early January, and many of these applicants, we are told, are being refused on the basis that their certificates are pre-2007 "Umalusi Senior Certificates", whatever that means. Does that mean that their certificates are no longer valid?
We urge the Minister of Higher Education and Training to investigate this matter so that these students, whose particulars I have, are assisted.
