Durban - Prestigious schools who wrote the Independent Examination Board (IEB) exams are optimistic about their matric results despite challenges brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic last year.
Over 12 000 Grade 12 pupils who sat for the Independent Examination Board (IEB) exams will receive their results on Friday, almost two months later than the normal release date.
Anne Oberholzer, CEO of the IEB would not speculate on the results, saying Umalusi, a council for quality assurance, has not formally approved it.
However, she said it was interesting to note that the hard lockdown had differing impacts across schools.
With the odds having been stacked against them because of the coronavirus and the lockdown, it has been quite a trying period for matrics and their parents/guardians across South Africa.
