Schools Algoa Bay Port Elizabeth


Pg 38 NEWSNOW

My View

I see there's a new magazine publication called “NEWSNOW” which is running its twentieth addition. Is this replacing the previous government sponsored “To the Point” magazine, or is it yet another addition to the ANC’s “New Age” propoganda newspaper? I think the editorials are shallow judging by the article above, and would better appeal to Africa’s uneducated masses.

Comparing high schools and high school fees of first world countries like Australia and the UK won’t help. Hundreds of thousands of third world and even first World students flock to those countries to enjoy the benefits of first world education in PUBLIC schools. The last time we enjoyed similar standards in South Africa was during the Nationalist Party reign. Since then we have had to deal with the new education system, drugs, guns, teachers who can’t spell, sexual predators (ask Oprah), OBE, 30% subject pass rates, high class room occupancy, high profile people (if you know what I mean) pushing their way to the front of queues despite long waiting lists for places, etc.

The ANC have driven out first world students to private schools through the indigenization process, the process whereby everyone is free to achieve “equality education” (ie. the lowest common denominator). We’ve had no choice but to seek out private education even though the price has been staggering under ANC rule.

Comparing prices either also won’t work for obvious exchange rate, value of currency and pay rate reasons.

Sorry ED this article hides the truth!




The Ruins of Milton High School Bulawayo

This is Milton High twenty years after the fall of Rhodesia. The school at the time I went there had the best teachers money could buy, manicured lawns and pamperd buildings, everything you would find in the best First World education system. After twenty years of being ridiculed and being forced to Africanise education, the white teachers and professionals retreated, and Milton High became fully indiginised.

Above is a satellite picture of what blacks have done to one of the best schools in the world, trees are seen growing in streets where teachers cars would drive along. A tree growing in the empty pool, but in my day filled with filtered crystal blue sparkling water. Tennis courts once painted green with white indication lines are a mere mist of what they once were. A sportsground watered and manicured to table top precision lies dead and unattended. Roofs once painted red are showing signs of rust and decay as the oxide undercoating protrudes. In fact most of the schools I have attended in Southern Africa are suffering the same fate under Africa’s know it all black leadership.
