It has come to the attention of the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) that some schools are allowing political parties to place their advertisements on their billboards.
|
| 2. |
The WCED wishes to alert district offices and schools to the contents of Circular 0076/1998, "Advertising on School Property" (paragraph 3.3), which, although it does not refer specifically to the advertisements of political parties, can be used to guide schools in this regard.
|
| 3. |
No political posters/pamphlets should be placed on any part of the school building or against the fence of the school.
|
| 4. |
Please bring the contents of this circular to the attention of the staff, school governing body and parents.
|
| 5. |
Your co-operation in the interest of education is appreciated.
