REPORT ON ORGANISATIONAL SYSTEMS AND RESOURCES AGAINST THE DELIVERYOF SERVICESFigure 6: Percentage of learners who were 18 or younger in Grade 12 (Matric) in Ordinary Schools, by public andindependent schools8070605098 99 00 01 02Ind Pu TotYearsIn 1998, 57% of <strong>Gauteng</strong>'s matriculants were 18 years of age or younger, indicating that just over half of the Grade 12population completed their curriculum in the anticipated 12-year period. Thus 43% were over-aged and took many extrayears to reach the exit point. By 2000, the number of learners who were 18 or younger increased to 65% and in <strong>2002</strong>, thisnumber increased to 71%. This shows that there is a gradual improvement in moving learners through the system (Figure 1)and hence reducing the learner years for producing one matriculant. A significant change in the indicator can be seen wherethere is a relative increase in the number of learners that are 18 years old and younger in Grade 12, especially in the publicordinary school sector.Indicator Group: EquitySub-Group: InputsObjectives:• To achieve more equitable learner: educator ratios• To reduce average class size• To reduce unequal distribution of resources• To focus resources on specific phases of learning• To enhance gender equity in the education systemIndicators:• Learner: educator ratios• Learner: classroom ratios• Mean absolute deviation in total cost per learner betweenprovinces and between regions and provinces• Distribution of funding across the various educationSectors and phases• Percentages of females employed at different post levelsGAUTENG DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2002</strong>/0325
