Yes, the 2024 matric results are scheduled to be published in newspapers. Despite concerns raised by the Information Regulator regarding the Protection of Personal Information (POPI) Act, the Department of Basic Education (DBE) has decided to proceed with the publication.
]The DBE argues that publishing results using only examination numbers, without names, does not violate privacy laws and provides accessible information to students, especially those who may not be near their schools when results are released.
PLEASE NOTE:
The official release date for the matric results is set for 13 January 2025, with results available to candidates on 14 January 2025.
While the DBE plans to publish the results in newspapers, the Information Regulator has issued enforcement notices to halt this practice due to non-compliance with the POPI Act.
Therefore, while the DBE intends to publish the results in newspapers, there is ongoing debate and legal considerations regarding this practice.
Students should also consider alternative methods to access their results, such as online portals or visiting their respective schools.
