As part of its QIDS UP initiative aimed at improving the quality of provisioning in Grade R classes and thereby improving the quality of learning and teaching, the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) is pleased to inform you that your school has been identified for the provisioning of outdoor equipment in the form of a jungle gym and the fencing off of the area with QIDS UP funds for the financial year 2008/2009.
Your school is therefore asked to prepare and fax to the WCED a rough sketch site plan of the school campus indicating where the fence of approximately 25 x 4 = 100 m should be erected in relation to the Grade R classroom.
Schools on private properties must seek written permission for the erection of the fence and jungle gym. This and a school governing body letter of approval for public schools must be submitted to the WCED before 24 June 2008 to fax number 021 467 2697.
Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to call Miss Vuyelwa Madasi (Project Manager: QIDS UP) at 021 467 9358 or Victoria Tsukudu (Institutional Management & Governance Planning) at 021 467 2591.
Please bring this minute to the attention of your staff, ECD educators and SGB members.
Your co-operation is appreciated.
