The South African Schools Act 84 of 1996 aims to make high-quality
basic education accessible to all South African children
irrespective of race and geographic location in the country.
Written by significant role-players and members of the judiciary,
Pathways to Successful Schooling reflects on the journey of South
African schooling over the past 20 years. This book was prompted by
the 2016 Schools Act symposium, Schools Act @ 20: Charting the Way
Forward, which celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Schools Act.
Looking at education since 1996, this book considers practical
alternatives for addressing contentious matters. Unique to this
work is the inclusion of the first ever analysis of the background
to the drafting of the Schools Act. Pathways to Successful
Schooling gives perspectives on dreams, expectations and realities.
It reflects on what became of the vision of the Education White
Paper 1 and the Schools Act. An international dimension is added by
the discussion of constitutional changes and values in the context
of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. The book also
looks at legislating for the realisation of children's rights and
offers the view that, although the Act has set the pace, broader
efforts will enhance children's rights in South Africa.
