EDUCATION director-general Thami Mseleku on Saturday convened a special meeting in Pretoria to discuss the country’s education crisis and the controversial Curriculum 2005 outcomes-based education system. Education ministry spokesman Bheki Kumalo said the meeting is attended by senior officials of the national department and nine provincial education departments. “They’re looking at Curriculum 2005 and related issues,” he said. Kumalo declined to say whether the meeting is looking at dropping the new system.
