I-DBE Igubha Usuku Lwothisha Lomhlaba, Igqamisa Ukuqeqeshwa Kothisha Besigaba Esiyisisekelo Abayi-10,000
Ekuhlonipheni othisha baseNingizimu Afrika abangama-485,000 ngoSuku Lwothisha Lomhlaba, uMnyango Wezemfundo Eyisisekelo ugqamise ukuqeqeshwa kokufunda nokubhala kanye nokubala okubhekiswe kothisha besigaba esiyisisekelo abayi-10,000 okuqhubekayo njengamanje.
Ekugubheni Usuku Lwothisha Lomhlaba, uMnyango Wezemfundo Eyisisekelo (DBE) uhloniphe othisha baseNingizimu Afrika ababalelwa ku-485,000 ngenkathi ugqamisa nezinhlelo eziqhubekayo zokuthuthukiswa kwamakhono abo emsebenzini. Kulandela imiklomelo yakamuva ye-2026 National Teacher Awards, uNgqongqoshe Wezemfundo Eyisisekelo uSiviwe Gwarube kanye nePhini likaNgqongqoshe uDkt Reginah Mhaule baveze ukuthuthukiswa kothisha njengomgogodla wokuletha izinguquko ezihlelekile emakilasini asezindaweni zasemalokishini, emakhaya nasemadolobheni.
Umgxila omkhulu wesu lamanje lomnyango ukwakha amakhono emabangeni aphansi, lapho othisha besigaba esiyisisekelo (foundation phase) abayi-10,000 bethola ukuqeqeshwa okubhekiswe ngqo ekufundeni nasekubhaleni (literacy) kanye nokubala (numeracy) kulo nyaka. I-DBE iphawule ukuthi le mizamo ihambisana nokuqhubeka kokusatshalaliswa kwe-National Reading Literacy Strategy, ukuqiniswa kwe-Early Childhood Development (ECD), kanye nokwesekwa kweMfundo Yezilimi Ezimbili Esuselwe Olimini Lwasekhaya (Mother Tongue-based Bilingual Education).
Ukugcizelelwa kokuqeqeshwa kwezibalo nokufunda nokubhala emabangeni aphansi kukhombisa iqiniso elibalulekile ngemfundo eyisisekelo eNingizimu Afrika: izinjongo zekharikhulamu ethuthukile zincike ngokuphelele ekutheni othisha bayakwazi yini ukutshala ngempumelelo amakhono asemqoka eminyakeni yokukhula yomfundi. Ukuqinisa ikhono lothisha ekubaleni nasekufundeni okuyisisekelo kwakha isisekelo esidingekayo ngaphambi kokuba abafundi bahlangabezane nezifundo zobuchwepheshe nezokuhlaziya eziyinkimbinkimbi emabangeni aphezulu.
