In respect of promotion issues, Hon Motshekga indicated that the pass requirements for the NSC were not lower than those of the old Senior Certificate. She alluded to the differences between the old and the new systems. Hon Motshekga mentioned that she was setting-up a Ministerial committee to re-examine the matter and to give international comparisons. This would help to put the minds of parents and learners at rest and to restore confidence in South Africa's qualifications. The team would also deal with concerns raised regarding publishing learners' results with names rather than using their student numbers.
