The students representative council at the Alex Campus of the Central Johannesburg College is upbeat on developments after last year’s demonstrations demanding improvements in services.
Seventy of the students were subsequently arrested. They were protesting against the lack of textbooks and equipment, and were demanding an investigation into financial misappropriation, and certification of qualifications in the hair care and cosmetology department.
The council’s chairperson Innocentia Moloi said the college management had acted on their demands, and that teaching and learning had returned to normal.
She said the students had been supplied with all the required textbooks, chairs, and kits used for the manicure, pedicure and hair care practicals and examinations.
In the past, students were required to provide these kits despite paying for them in their fees.
