Have you just matriculated and are now wondering what is out there in the post-Matric world? Well, we are here to give you some insight into post-Matric opportunities for you to consider.
Finishing Matric is both a weight off your shoulders and a huge step to take. Mapping out what you’re going to do once you’ve matriculated can be quite a stressful process so here are some post-Matric opportunities you can take advantage of.
Second Chance Matric Programme
Due to majority of Matrics not performing as well as they would’ve wished, the Department aims to provide support to them through the Second Chance Matric programme. While taking part in this programme, you can also continue with other aspects of your life.
The categories of youth targeted with this programme:
- Anyone who wrote Matric and failed their exams
- Learner who attempted Matric but didn’t perform as well as they wished
- Adults who are 21 years old and over with a minimum of grade 10 wanting to do their Matric
To register, you need to bring your matric certificate/grade 10 report/grade 11 report and a certified copy of your ID, and you can register at the following places:
- If you wrote in the year before, you should register at the exam centre
- Education district office
- Online through the Second Chance Matric website
- Community Learning Centre of Department of Higher Education
As part of this programme, attendants will receive hard copies of study guides, past papers and memos, video and audio resources, online resources and have access to broadcasts. Face to face centres for classes throughout the country are available as well where top performing teachers are working.
