Gender-based violence (GBV) continues to be a grave and widespread problem in South Africa, with attacks against vulnerable communities unabated despite decades-long campaigns. It is time for all South Africans, and students and young people in particular, to step up and take a stand against this scourge, says Rosebank College.

Adrian Garden at The Independent Institute of Education’s Rosebank College says while career choice is a crucial decision for matriculants that will influence not only their immediate years after school but also potentially determine their success and well-being for decades to come, it is possible to make the decision process easier and more effective.

Tension is mounting in households across South Africa as Grade 12 students embark on the critical final phase towards their final exams. This juncture isn't merely an academic checkpoint and a transformative phase, but is a daunting and often emotional rollercoaster for students and their parents.

Grade Nine students across South Africa will soon be tasked with deciding which subjects to pursue from next year until they sit for their final examinations at the end of Grade 12. It is a significantly challenging process for most students (and the parents who must support them), particularly for those young people who yet still need to have a clear idea regarding what studies and careers they might want to pursue in future.

The IIE's Rosebank College is now open for registration for individuals wanting to study. Rosebank College is dedicated to providing students with a solid foundation, creating future thinkers to build successful careers.
