Show Notes

South Africas Basic Education Minister introduces draft rules to keep pregnant schoolgirls in class, aiming to end the dropout nightmare. The new regulations require principals to support girls, provide classwork during maternity leave, and ensure promotion based on school-based and practical marks. The shift aims to end the stigma surrounding pregnancy in schools and protect girls from abuse. Public input is welcome until April 25, 2026.
