KZN education dept to ensure upcoming matric exams go ahead without glitches

The department of education in KwaZulu-Natal says it will ensure that the upcoming National Senior Certificate examinations go ahead without glitches. 

On Tuesday, authorities, including Premier Thamsanqa Ntuli, visited a site where exam paprs were being printed.

KwaZulu-Natal accounts for 25% of the country’s matriculants.

MEC Sipho Hlomuka said the department would safeguard the examination process.

"We do have our own, but we also have other security, which I can’t reveal here because we are watertight. We’ve made sure that there is no one that will steal exam papers."
