Once ranked among the worst-performing schools in SA, Phafogang Secondary School in Soweto has defied the odds, recording an impressive 81.9 matric pass rate.
Acting deputy principal Figo Mashele recalls how dire the situation once was.
In 2023 we were the second worst-performing school in the country. Before that our results dropped as low as 47 and later improved to 71. This years 81.9 shows we are moving in the right direction.
