“The Gauteng education department says although it is disappointed by the theft of e-learning equipment at Phafogang Secondary School in Rockville, the incident will not deter it from delivering quality education to learners.”

GDE spokesperson Phumla Sekhonyane said that the theft is robbing pupils from a better educational system.
“The department is extremely concerned that valuable resources, which are meant to enhance the delivery of quality education to learners, are seen by some as an opportunity to feed their criminal deeds and rob our learners of their right to quality basic education,” she said.

“ Gauteng Education MEC Panyaza Lesufi has announced that the department will regrettably be withdrawing a total of 88 000 tablets from schools across the province following the recent spate of burglaries. He said there have been a series of burglaries at schools in the province as people want to steal tablets that the department handed over to schools. ”

Having launched in January last year, the paperless school project was halted in May following a number of thefts and school robberies, which saw more than 3,000 tablets stolen out of 88,000 distributed.
“This prompted the MEC to temporarily retrieve them for the installation of  additional security features,” the department said.

Great pains have been made to secure these devices at the schools for children to experience the best education that we can offer them as a society.

Clearline recently installed our new USB Power Rack at the Curro school in Shoshanguve.

The unit locks tablets away securely and charges them via 6 solar panels installed on the roof. The units wheels make it ideal because it can also be used to transport tablets safely between classrooms.
