Rethink subjects

While government is planning how to manage no increase in university fees and how to get money to universities and unhappy hungry students, this would be a good time to rethink the required subjects for a matric and a Bachelor pass, a requirement for studying at university. 

CAT and Tourism are not in the designated list for a Bachelor matric pass. Getting to university and the hoped for way out of poverty with a degree and coping with poor teaching in under resourced schools, learners stay with subjects on the designated list. They cannot afford to gamble with their subjects. We know they only have to do 4 from the list but just in case they do all their subjects from the designated list. So they do not do subjects which they could use to help them succeed at university or starting their own businesses. 

Dear authorities please rethink the position of CAT and Tourism!  Thank you.

Designated subjects

Why is CAT not recognised as one of the ‘designated’ subjects for university? Have a look at the official list of designated subjects. http://www.hesa-enrol.ac.za/nishe/faqs.htm
We have spoken about this before, and not had the answers we believe are correct.
We must get our PARENTS and PRINCIPALS to write to the Higher Education South Africa (HESA) board to relook at and revise the subjects required to get access to universities. Their web site is http://www.hesa.org.za/hesa/
WHEN is HESA going to relook at and revise the ‘designated’ subjects required to get access to universities? After the election?
