1. A list of circulars issued by the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) for the first quarter of 2003 is attached.
2. Circulars must be be filed for as long as they are valid.
3. You are reminded that, as from 1 April 2003, circulars will be sent out only in e-mail format. Should circulars have attachments that cannot be sent via e-mail, hard copies will be made available. Schools which do not have e-mail facilities will still be provided with hard copies of circulars. Circulars are essential for the efficient functioning of the WCED and educators and officials are therefore under obligation to take note of them.
4. Schools and officials are kindly requested to check their e-mail on a daily basis to remain up to date with the contents of all circulars. The WCED will check whether e-mailed circulars to schools have been delivered and opened. Schools and officials are also advised to create a folder on their computers for the filing of these circulars. This will enable schools and officials to check whether they have taken cognisance of all circulars which apply to them Circulars for 2003 are also available on the WCED’s web page http://wced.wcape.gov.za/circulars/index_circulars.html.
5. Please bring the contents of this circular to the attention of all concerned.
6. Your co-operation will be appreciated.
