The Western Cape Education Department

Our department is responsible for public schooling in the province, from Grade 1 to 12. Our primary objectives are to improve the language and mathematics skills of learners; to improve matric results; and improve access to quality education in poor communities. The WCED operates in eight Education Districts with a Head Office in Cape Town.
