Since 1994, the South African education system has been undergoing continuous
transformation which has had an impact on the governance of Further Education and
Training (FET) colleges. This study, which focused on an investigation of the principles
of effective governance at FET colleges, was conducted in three purposefully sampled
FET colleges.
Qualitative content analysis was used to analyse data collected using semi-structured
interviews, observation and document analysis. The main finding of this study revealed
that college councils do not have either the capacity or the resources to develop policies
for colleges, nor is there a clear and documented reporting process in place. The study
highlighted that the roles and responsibilities of college council’s sub-committees are
not clearly defined in the 2006 FETC Act.
Based on the research findings, recommendations were made in respect of the effective
participation of college councils in the governance of FET colleges. / Educational Leadership and Management / M. Ed. (Education Management)
