A good education system is the foundation of a thriving economic system. And poor educational outcomes in the country saw the formation of the National Education Collaboration Trust (NECT), ten years ago.

This week, the trust holds its annual convention.

As the Chair of the NECT, Future Nation Schools’ co-founder and CEO, Sizwe Nxasana, spoke to the SABC about what the NECT has done to date and its plant to continue to help government prioritise basic education.
