Why it matters

77% of learners speak a language their classroom refuses to.

The Constitution promises education in your home language. For three decades, that promise has been broken. Children don't fail because they can't learn — they fail because they're taught in a language they don't yet understand.

81%
of Grade 4 learners can't read for meaning in any language.
9M+
African-language speakers stranded in English-only classrooms.
