5. There was a need to ensure that the review of the quintile system that is in process eliminates inconsistencies in the current classification of schools. 6. There was a need to strengthen intergovernmental relations in order to facilitate effective service delivery particularly in services that cut across jurisdictional boundaries. This included the need for schools to improve relations with municipalities and make inputs on their Integrated Development Plans (IDPs) in order to ensure that municipal services are provided to schools. 7. There is a need to ensure that outstanding learner support material, including workbooks are delivered to schools as a matter of urgency in order to facilitate effective learning and teaching. In future the department should ensure that all learner support material is delivered before the reopening of schools. 8. The Department should monitor schools to ensure that they use allocated funds for intended purposes. 9. The Department of Education at provincial, national, district and circuit level needs to improve relations and communications with schools to ensure that teaching and learning takes place with fewer disruptions. 10. There is an urgent need for the PC on education in the province to be brought on board in terms of the intervention processes and decisions that are unfolding. The chairperson of the PC on provincial education was just not happy about the way the processes is unfolding because the committee is not consulted on these issues, including the signed intervention MoU 11. The National DBE should ensure as a matter of urgency that there is consultation cooperation and collaboration throughout the intervention process 12. There is also a serious need for key stakeholders to be consulted on the processes and decisions of the intervention. The PC on Education in the province is seriously offended by the fact that the Minister does not consult it on intervention matters. 13. The problem of scholar transport around King Williams Town district is still continuing. It is therefore very urgent for the Intervention Task Team to address the situation. 14. Section 21 schools seem to be better off in terms of procurement processes and LTSM. It would therefore be advisable or recommended for the Department of Basic Education to look into the possibility of moving Section 20 schools to Section 21. 15. The infrastructure situation in the Eastern Cape Province is appalling as seen in schools such as Nomandla and Sompa primary schools. It is therefore imperative for the ASIDI programme to be speeded up. 16. Lack of trust between the PC/ECDE and the head of the intervention task team, e.g. the chairperson of the PC said: "we cannot give our money to a stranger" referring to the head of task team.
