1. During 2003 and 2004, most Foundation and Intermediate Phase teachers attended a five-day Revised National Curriculum Statement (RNCS) course, while members of school management teams (SMTs) attended either a two-day or a three-day course. Certificates were promised to teachers and SMT members who attended the entire course. Because the course registers do not always contain all the details required for the issuing of certificates, we kindly request schools to provide the following information for each teacher and/or SMT member who attended the full RNCS Foundation and/or Intermediate Phase course in 2003 and/or 2004:
(a) Surname
(b) First name (Not just initial)
(c) Name of school (Indicate whether Primary, 
    Combined, Junior, etc.)
(d) PERSAL or ID number (PERSAL numbers for WCED
    employees and ID numbers for school governing body 
    employees or teachers at independent schools) 
(e) Course attended (Indicate either Foundation 
    Phase or Intermediate Phase.)
(f) Course attended (Indicate whether teacher course 
    and/or SMT course.)
2. Once this information has been returned by schools, we will check against our records and make corrections. In cases where the data has not been supplied by 18 February 2005, the certificates will be printed using the information from the attendance registers. Certificates will not be re-issued.
3. You are also requested to kindly supply information on teachers who have left the school since attending a course.
4. Kindly fax or e-mail the requested information to Hazel C. Visser at fax no. 021 467 2258 or e-mail: Hazel Visser (hvisser@pgwc.gov.za) .
