SA Migration
International was created out of the need for a
specialist organization to assist people wishing to immigrate,
volunteer, work, bring family, study or open businesses in South
Africa.
Two children, then aged eight and 14, from Sterkspruit in the
Eastern Cape had to leave school in 2015 and sit at home after
being chased out of their primary school because they did not have
birth certificates.
In Alexandria, also in the Eastern Cape, eight learners from a
safe house for abandoned and orphaned children were expelled from
a primary school for the same reason.
The South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC or Commission)
has released its Position Paper on Access to a Basic Education for
Undocumented Learners, inclusive of findings and recommendations
addressed to the State. The release of this Paper follows an
extensive consultation process with relevant stakeholders.
Thousands of children across the country face insurmountable
barriers in accessing school on a continuous basis as a result of
their undocumented status. In line with the current laws and
policies, certain documentation must be submitted in order to
enroll a child at school, and the failure to submit, or the
inability to do so, results in the exclusion of the child.
I have news. “As from today [August 15], travellers from Qatar, Saudi
Arabia, United Arab Emirates and New Zealand will no longer require a
visa to visit SA for holidays, conferencing, and business meeting
visits,” Aaron Motsoaledi, the minister of home affairs, declared.
