Radio broadcast lessons to support Examinations

The DBE, through the Second Chance Matric Support Programme, is providing radio broadcast lessons to all learners, most especially those writing the 2017 NSC Supplementary examinations. The radio lessons will be broadcast in 27 community radio stations, ensuring that learners residing in rural areas also have access.

The radio lessons, which will take place during the same period as the 2017 NSC Supplementary examinations, will be conducted by qualified teachers and supported by an hour-long Facebook Q&A session at the end of each lesson. The same teachers who will be conducting the lessons will also facilitate the Facebook Q&A sessions.

Below is a list of all the community radio stations where the lessons are broadcast.
