The KwaZulu-Natal Education Department has launched a pilot project to provide mental health support to the 302 000 full-time matric candidates in the province, who will start writing their final exams on Tuesday.” The head of the KwaZulu-Natal Education Department Nkosinathi Ngcobo says there are positive signs that the class of 2026 will equal last year’s record pass rate of 90 percent.

Briefing the media in Durban on preparations for the finals, MEC Sipho Hlomuka said he’s pleased with the four percent increase in full-time candidates which indicates less learners are dropping out of school before grade 12.
