1. The Western Cape Education Department (WCED) regards independent schools as key partners in the delivery of quality education for all children in the Western Cape, and we look forward to working with you.
2. The visits to Independent Schools in February 2010 and March 2011 proved to be mutually beneficial. As a follow-up in order to strengthen links and systems, WCED officials from Head Office will be visiting independent schools in March 2012.
3. Schools will be visited from 5 - 20 March 2012. The details and the monitoring instrument will be sent to you prior to the visit.
4. We would like to take this opportunity to wish all principals, teachers and learners a well-deserved holiday.
