Durban - North West is expected to once again complete the top four list of best-performing provinces for matric results, and this year Deputy Minister of the Department of Basic Education Dr Regina Mhaule is hopeful and expects nothing less.
Mhaule, accompanied by North West Education MEC Mmaphefo Matsemela, visited the province to monitor compliance with Covid-19 protocols and encourage teachers and learners to continue to work hard.
Last year, the Free State reclaimed top spot from Gauteng, which dropped to second position. North West grabbed third position, with the Western Cape completing the top four.
