CAPE TOWN - Equal Education has hailed the Western Cape High Court’s ruling on the Learner Admission Policy.
The court slammed the policy as inefficient, discriminatory, unconstitutional, and structurally biased against Black working-class and marginalised communities.
Equal Education challenged the department for failing to plan and promptly place late applicants in schools.
The Court ruled the admissions crisis is not accidental, but entrenched and systemic.
