The transformation of education in South Africa since 1994 : a historical-educational survey and evaluation

This study entails a critical investigation into the issue and trends that shaped Black
perspectives on education in South Africa in the period between 1652 and 1993.
A theoretical-philosophical exposition is presented to establish the fundamental
characteristics of education and therefore characteristics valid for every human being
under any circumstances at any time. These characteristics were used to eventually
appraise the issues and trends underlying the shaping of Black perspectives on education
in South Africa.
This study has revealed that the shaping of Black perspectives on education in South Africa
goes hand in hand with the growing realization among Blacks that education is not merely
a political issue but also deeply imbedded in the interconnectedness and/or differences
between social realities such as the church, the school itself, teachers' associations, the news
media et cetera. This should be accounted for by every citizen in a responsible way. / Educational Studies / D. Ed. (History of Education)
