Addressing the Portfolio Committee today, Minister Buti Manamela said the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) intervention was a necessary step to protect both students and public resources.

The administration process will ensure continuity of funding operations while government works to stabilise governance, improve systems, strengthen accountability and build a sustainable NSFAS for the future.

The focus remains on ensuring that poor and working-class students continue to access higher education with dignity and support.

“One decision can change the direction of a young person’s life.”

“May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.” – Nelson Mandela

Today, our Marketing Team engaged with the Grade 12 learners of Phapani High School, encouraging learners to make informed life choices and meaningful decisions about their future.

Learners were introduced to the exciting study opportunities available at Eastcape Midlands TVET College, including the transition towards Occupational and QCTO programmes and how these qualifications are designed to better prepare students with practical skills and workplace experience for today’s industries.

At EMC, we believe every learner deserves guidance, opportunity, and the confidence to build a brighter future. ✨

Mr Baphelele Ncwadi

Having participated in the same competition in East London last year, but unable to complete his artwork within the allocated time, Baphelele returned in 2026 with renewed determination and delivered an outstanding performance. That is true resilience!

Ms Oz Foley

Oz secured her place among the top three and has already made a promise — she will be back next year, and she is coming for gold. Watch this space!

We are incredibly proud of both students. You stepped onto the stage, gave your best, and made EMC shine.
