(b) The unplaced learner details fluctuate daily. The detailed list of unplaced learner data is not stored / recorded on a daily basis – rather, managers can download or print this detail as required. It is thus not possible to extract this detail for a specific past point in time. The WCED is looking at introducing this feature going forward. The below data was drawn on 30 March 2021.
Number of learners | |
City of Cape Town | 5 133 |
Theewaterskloof | 1 |
Mossel Bay | 0 |
Total | 5 134 |
