A second chance for matrics

ALEXANDRA – Alex High School, in partnership with ORT SA and Bidvest, is offering a Second Chance Mathematics and Science Programme for students who failed matric.

Not all is lost for those matrics who did not perform well in 2016.

Alexandra High School, in partnership with ORT SA and Bidvest, will host the year-long Second Chance Mathematics and Science Programme at the school and are calling on prospective schoolgoers who failed their matric examinations, or believe they did not do well enough and need to improve their marks, to come forward and register for the programme.

The recovery programme is targeted at matrics who are not able to gain access to tertiary institutions due to their poor marks in the two subjects. It aims to equip and develop participants with mathematical and scientific knowledge, skills and the right attitude that will enable them to overcome the myth that maths and science are difficult subjects.

To enrol, matriculants must have passed at least four other subjects and achieved low marks or failed maths and science. Their 2016 matric results, a certified copy of their identity document, and a completed application form, along with the willingness to attend class for the duration of this year will be required for enrolment.
