In respect of strategies to improve learner performance, it was found that some schools did not know their ANA results and were not utilising them as a diagnostic tool to improve their performance. Learner admission for 2013 was not completed in most schools across provinces, despite the policy requirement that it should be complemented by September of the previous year. The Quality and Teaching Campaign (QLTC) was also non-functional in most schools. The absence of the QLTC compromises efforts to address challenges of learner discipline and parental involvement identified in some schools. The oversight visits have provided the Committee with an opportunity to identify areas that need to be strengthened to improve learner outcomes. The findings and recommendations contained in this report should help in assisting the districts and provinces to improve their preparations for school readiness in future.
