WESSELTON – After years of learning under life-threatening conditions and in a dilapidating structure, Cebisa Secondary School received three mobile classes on June 20.

Highvelder reported on the learning conditions in the school.

About 100 learners were clustered into one small classroom with broken windows and ceilings and exposed electrical wires.

According to information previously provided by a member the school governing body (SGB), Cebisa Secondary School was moved into a former residential area for the Thuthukani mine dwellers in 1996 when Lindile Secondary School was split into two.
