In this podcast, the Complexion and Mpho Mashita look at the annual problem that Limpopo faces as a province … the problem of leaked matric exam papers and cheating during matric exams.

They talk to the Director of Ethicalways, Penny Milner-Smyth about whether we should generally question how ethical matriculants are.

The Department of Education in Limpopo released a statement saying that the Limpopo MEC for Education, Polly Boshielo will lead the Provincial Pledge Signing ceremony by candidates registered to write the National Senior Certificate (NSC).

Learners will sign a pledge committing to comply with the Examination Code of Conduct. In addition to the pledge signing, learners and parents are required to sign a Commitment Agreement, which provides a detailed list of the key rules and regulations relating to the NSC examination as well as the requirements and rules relating to the COVID-19.
