Are INTEC, Damelin failing their students and staff? With Prega Govender

from The Lead · host News24

Is Educor setting itself up for deregistration by the government once again? Representing a host of private education institutions, including Damelin College, Educor has in recent years been drowning in a pile of complaints from staff and students about its poor teaching and administrative practices. Well, another of its institutions, INTEC, has now come in for sharp criticism from staff and students, past and present, complaining about a severe lack of academic support. We mark Educor’s test paper with News24’s senior education journalist, Prega Govender, in this edition of The Lead. Later in the show, former Chief Justice Raymond Zondo claims he had more faith in the early 2000s-era Scorpions than today’s Hawks. Finally, ‘Luigi’ the Boks’ homeless superfan finally heads home to Makhanda.
