I fail to understand why are we granted the opportunity to redo Grade 12 because we all know that people are suffer out there because they are not educated enough to qualify for certain jobs. Even house keeping requires a grade 12 certificate, yet we are denied the chance of improving and trying to create better future for ourselves. Not everyone who failed grade 12 was playing and not serious, what people never think about is that some carry heavy burdens behind closed door, some have domestic issues that may be resulting the to fail and giving it a second try is one of the best decision one could take than giving up. When it is said we have a right to education that right must not have limitations.

Reapiting grade 12 is not an embarrassment any more. But you just try to do better and improve your work because everything seems impossible until it's done.

I get the fact that grade 12 is important and why repeating it seems like something that should be an option, it use to be an option when people failed grade 12 they would go back to school and redo but I think having a that many grade 12s in classes maybe became a problem. That is why the bettering of marks option is there which I think is better since we are able to pick which subjects you want to redo instead of going back to school and redoing them all.

Grade 12 is a preparation for higher institutions.It is almost like a test to see if you'll be able to pass.A person that fails martic is given the chance to re-write subjects that they failed which is an advantage for them to get distinctions as they will be focusing with 2 or 3 subjects the entire year.A weak learners is given an opportunity to write few subjects on their matric year and complete the rest the following year.Most learners to not like this because they are afraid that people will say they are slow learners and the truth is that what you give is what you get,you can't be playing with stones the whole year and expect to turn them into bread during the last team.There is a lot of different alternatives provided to learners to solve their complex subjects.They must make use of them and focus.

Doing matric can be overwhelming to any other high school learner and that leads to a lot of childish mistakes. As a kid it's supposed to be a good thing to make mistakes and then learn from them and work on them. I strongly believe if a learner fails their matric(which is the best thing to ever do in your life as a child) it's because of silly mistakes. We can't judge anyone about their mistakes in matric because that whole experience is a lot to handle. If any learner were to fail their final matric exams, they're supposed to be given a second chance to try and be better and not discarded. In South Africa, the only thing you're allowed to do is just write exams on your own and you won't be taught which is kind of unfair because everyone in SA has a write to learn and be educated.
The education system is really failing us at some point, because how many unemployed and matric failures have to be there so that it can notice that something is lacking in the department that can change the whole nation which that is CARE. They should start caring about that one person who really needs a second chance in Education to change their livelihoods.

I agree. Because even though some high schools allow students to repeat Grade 12 but they are very few and can be far from them which may lead to them giving up. If all high schools could give second chances to matric students that failed, i believe we can see some change in our environments.

I think the reason why people failed grade 12 while doing sup is that they are used to having from of them and being told what to do. I think they should be given a chance to go back to school for the second time .

I fully agree! Grade 12 shouldnt be put out like this. Children are finding it harder every year just to hold on. The work is too much and government needs to understand the way that they are putting it forward is not the best. We only get one chance and then out life is basically determined and of we fail, we have to wait another year and we can't even move on because everything needs it today. It's not fair on many learners and teachers and they are the one ls that usually get the blame when a child cannot cope or get and A.

It is not fair for schools not to accept someone who failed grade 12 because most jobs require grade 12 certificates.

Upgrading our grades ,which means rewriting is really not like repeating the grade because you only go to school to write. This means you will have to study alone whereas going to school and getting what you couldn't get us much better than trying to figure something out that u failed to figure out the previous year😭. For me I would prefer doing the whole year. But the disadvantage is that I'll b doing all the subjects rather than that one that I failed. That would be a no for me. But if I'm allowed to go to school for that one subject then by all means.

Starting from grd 1 up to grd 11 if you fail you can repeat the grade as many as you can. When you want to go to University to study whatever you wante to be in life they require grade 12. The Jobs also requires grade 12 now whether is a Security,  domestic work ,  Agents also wants Grade 12.I feel South African government is failing it's people or young generation because as we are still developing country the are more families,  children struggling which could lead to some of them being unable to master their exams , then they will need a second chance or being helped after failing grade 12 by creating something or some schools for second a chance.Since the is a lot that requires grade 12 I Believe it's unfair not to repeat grade 12 as other lower grades.
