FF Plus Gauteng condemns subsidy cuts for quintile-5 schools [SOUND]

# The Freedom Front Plus has condemned the Gauteng Department of Education’s decision to reduce subsidies to quintile-5 schools, from 900-rand to just 315-rand per learner as from 2026. This reduction affects Afrikaans schools in particular. FF Plus’ Anton Alberts says they view the sudden slashing of subsidies as an indirect attack on Afrikaans schools in the province. He says this places the schools under financial strain and undermines the sustainability of quality education in Afrikaans:
