Heritage Month | Dismantling language barriers in schools

3 hours ago 49


As we continue with our heritage feature on the programme, we will zoom in on language as a facet of our heritage. South Africa is a multilingual and multicultural society with 11 official languages. This diversity can somewhat create language barriers in South African schools, which can hinder learning and affect the academic performance of students. So how can South African schools address and remove language barriers to create a more inclusive and equitable education system? Joining us virtually for this discussion is Dr Laurien Rosen, Director of The Eduvation Network. For more news, visit sabcnews.com and #SABCNews on all Social Media platforms.
