Abstract
M.Ed.
This research paper focuses on the different stakeholders' perceptions of poor
matric results, for example, why are matric results poor and what can be done to
improve the results. The research will be conducted in the Zebediela area in the
Northern Province. As this research topic has become a thorn in the flesh to the
majority of the South Africans, the researcher wishes to get various views from
different stakeholders regarding this phenomenon. The aim of this re search is to do the following:
A literature survey in order to find out what various authors view as better ways
of improving performance.
Interviews with various stakeholders to find out why the matric results are so
poor and to get various views on how matric results can be improved.
Analysis and description of the findings.
From the findings I will come up with conclusions and recommendations as how
to attempt solving the problem.
