# Build One South Africa is calling on the minister of Basic Education, Siviwe Gwarube, to account for the school dropout crisis in the country. Approximately 450-thousand learners have disappeared from the system before even reaching Grade 12. BOSA’s spokesperson, Roger Solomons, says that to address this crisis, urgent interventions must be implemented. He says these include reducing class sizes and improving teacher support, ending budget cuts to education and providing psychosocial and nutritional support to learners at risk.
