Thanks, Minister, but I won't say for the comprehensive response. The focus of the Dinaledi School Project was to enhance the performance of young South Africans in maths and science.
Yesterday we had the family of Ch Guevara and the ambassador of Cuba in the House. Cuba revolutionised their country's standing in maths and science within a matter of two years. My understanding is that it is not the job of revolutionaries only to sing praises to Cuba, but also to learn lessons from them. I want to know whether the department and the government have embarked on a programme to learn from Cuba.
We cannot have a pilot project forever. The number of Dinaledi schools has been frozen at 500, and this is therefore no longer a project because it has been running for five years now. Is there any programme to ensure that the teaching of maths and science is revolutionised along Cuban lines?
