  2. THE FUTURE OF MATRICULATION IN BSSCurrent Situation • There is a significant demand due to • Economic recession b) Equivalence issues c) Local university admission policies d) The students save a year • We do not cater sufficiently to the needs of the Matric stream • Faculty training , teaching strategies, image, results, acknowledgment of achievements • Weaker students are forced into the matric stream thereby affecting the performance • Higher demand in outstation campuses – and suburban areas • Academic calendar is designed without due focus on matric • Career Guidance is geared towards A levels • Only Science subjects are offered – Matric offers a lot of social science combinations too which are not offered in BSS

  3. THE FUTURE OF MATRICULATION IN BSSRecommendations • We need to provide a renewed focus on Matriculation – from admin to teachers and plan to initiate an FSC offering, eventually • Provide proper ownership • Career Counseling , extra curricular and teacher training • Bifurcation by choice not assessment • Celebrate the Matric achievements • Bifurcation at the beginning of 8th • Value addition to justify fee structure in Matric courses • Focused marketing and promotion • Positive liaison with Local Boards

  4. Implications • If Matric is adapted with separate focus: • Will open BSS to a new demographic • Where there is a demand, we must provide • We acknowledge that not only low income families are interested in Matriculation • Venturing towards Fsc. will increase our growth and improve the brand image • If it is abandoned • There is a strong consensus that we cannot drop matric and alienate a significant portion of our population.
