Over 300 EC, KZN matriculants couldn't sit for exams due to heavy rains

JOHANNESBURG - Provisions have been made for Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal students who could not write their Computer Applications exam on Tuesday.

This is according to the Department of Basic Education and Training spokesperson, Elijah Mhlanga.

The 310 students will be afforded a make-up exam before the last paper on 28 November.

Heavy rains have been battering parts of both provinces and many homes and infrastructure have been destroyed.

This has, in turn, affected matric pupils who began exams on Monday. Mhlanga says that the department had factored in the bad weather during planning.
