The Congress of Traditional Leaders of South Africa (Contralesa) is urging parents and community members to refrain from putting undue pressure on matriculants who did not pass their exams. The organization is calling for understanding and support for these students during this challenging time.
Contralesa recognizes the immense pressure that matriculants face during exam time and understands the disappointment and frustration that comes with not achieving the desired results. They are urging parents and community members to be empathetic and to offer their support to these students as they navigate their way forward.
The organization is concerned about the mental and emotional well-being of matriculants who did not pass, and is urging parents and community members to be mindful of the impact of their words and actions on these students. They emphasize the importance of providing a nurturing and supportive environment for these young people, rather than adding to their stress and anxiety.
Contralesa is also calling for a shift in mindset when it comes to academic success, emphasizing that there are many paths to success and that matric results are not the sole determining factor of a student’s future. They are advocating for a more holistic approach to education and are encouraging parents and community members to consider the individual strengths and talents of each student, and to support them in finding alternative pathways to success.
The organization is also urging matriculants who did not pass to seek guidance and support from their schools, community leaders, and organizations that offer educational and career guidance. They want these students to know that there are resources and support systems available to help them explore their options and make informed decisions about their future.
Contralesa’s message is clear: it is important for parents and community members to be understanding and supportive of matriculants who did not pass, and to offer them the guidance and encouragement they need to move forward positively. They are calling for a collective effort to help these students find their path to success and to provide them with the support they need to thrive in their future endeavours.
