The humble initial ideas from community members have systematically been put into a coherent unified working project with unquestionable success. The tuition programme started on 10 February 1992 at Mareleng Primary School, net to Ndebele College of Education in Siyadubswa. The political and economic problems which South Africa is experiencing at present are strongly linked to inadequate education at all levels. The largest resource of our country is its human resource potential and this resource will remain largely untapped until all its people are educated and trained to function optimally in a modern technology-based society.
Science is the basis of technology and science depends on education and research.
The chances for a Black child to be one of the graduates in science are very slim indeed. For every 10000 Black children who enter the first grade, only one of them matriculates with an exemption in science. This is of course largely due to poor education standard in Black schools, although many children do have the potential to pursue tertiary education in the sciences. The loss of this unexploited talent can be ill afforded by South Africa. It is clear therefore that to exploit this potential, science education at high school must be upgraded dramatically in a short period of time.
