(a) All provinces have established QLTC structures, with the exception of the Western Cape Province. Functionality is informed by programmes that are implemented in each province. The DBE has shared programmes for implementation through the Provincial QLTC structures and the District QLTC Structures.
The challenge is that where QLTCs have not been established, they have not been incorporated as part of the SGBs. The DBE is taking advantage of the 2024 SGB elections to re-establish and strengthen QLTCs; and ensure that they are both functional and have programmes in place. The number of functional QLTC structures in each province is provided on teh table below.
