HEDCOM Workshop: Focus on Infrastructure and Teacher Development

School infrastructure and teacher development are vital pillars of a strong education system. Recent discussions from the South Africa Department of Basic Education (DBE) highlight their commitment to strengthening both. Let’s take a peek at what’s been happening.

At a recent HEDCOM Workshop, key figures from the DBE shed light on important initiatives. Mr. Ramasedi Mafoko, Acting Chief Director of Infrastructure Planning and Delivery, discussed the crucial areas of infrastructure planning, delivery, and maintenance. Making sure schools have safe, well-equipped buildings is essential for creating a positive learning environment for pupils.

Alongside infrastructure, teacher development is another priority. Mr. Enoch Rabotapi, Chief Director for Teacher Development, shared insights into ongoing efforts to support and enhance the skills of educators. Investing in teachers’ professional growth is a direct investment in the quality of education students receive.
