Other reasons why a vast majority of adolescents quit secondary school...

  • secondary schools do not facilitate adequate exposure to future career options.
  • adolescents do not have the means to study as parents can’t afford further education or talent development in the arts, sport or any other field.
  • They find school boring: Not enough left / right brain stimulation in the municipal school curriculum to cover inherent aptitudes.
