  1. School Selection Criteria Ministerial Policy Coordinating Committee Meeting (MPCC) 29 March 2006 Presented by: Johan van Wyk, Deputy Director - MoE ICT

  2. School Selection Criteria • RATIONALE • To define standards for prioritizing deployment of equipment and training. • To ensure that development levels, as per the ICT Policy for Education, are attained. • To ensure that transparency is maintained. • To act as a guide for the Ministry of Education as well as their partners in selecting priority sites, when they receive or want to make donations. • To be reviewed and scrutinized by stakeholders and public parties

  3. Translation of the ICT Policy for Education • The closeness of learners to entering the workforce (grades 11 & 12), places them higher on the priority list. • The policy stipulates that schools with secondary grades take precedence over schools without secondary grades. • Disadvantaged schools require higher focus and attention. • A minimum development level of 2 should be maintained. • Ministry priority: • Schools that have typing classes and need to be upgraded to computers with Key Boarding/Word Processing as a subject, though not stipulated in Policy, are Ministry priority since this is an examinable subject. • Schools with better results are rewarded for their performance by taking examination results into account.

  4. The following criterion is used: • Presence of typing classes: 3,000 points for schools offering typing classes. • Presence of Grade 12: 2,000 points for schools with grade 12 • Cluster Center status: 1,000 points for schools with cluster center status • Performance JCE : proportional based on 1,000 points for 100% pass rate • Performance IGCSE: proportional based on 1,000 points for 100% pass rate • Absence of Electricity: 200 points for schools without electricity. • Presence of hostel: 100 points for schools with hostels. • Absence of Telecom services: 50 points for schools with no telecommunications infrastructure. • Learner to teacher ratio: 30 points for schools with a learner:teacher ratio more than 30:1
