The Deputy Minister, Ms. Makhotso Sotyu, will visit Boaramelo Combined School in Jagersfontein in the Free State, as part of the Back-to-School campaign on 18 January 2023.

The Back-to-School campaign is an opportunity for the Deputy Minister to conduct oversight duties to assess the state of school readiness for the 2023 academic year. In addition, Deputy Minister Sotyu will use the campaign to support learners with supplies. This would include eco-desks, school shoes, sanitary packs as well as gardening tools and trees.

The support forms part of government’s Back-to-School campaign which aims to encourage learners and teachers to commit themselves to teaching and learning.
