More books

More Books is a public campaign to encourage a greater abundance and diversity of books in South African schools. It is driven by private individuals and supporting organisations.

Their current focus is the Department of Basic Education’s proposed ‘National Policy for the Provisioning and Management of Learning and Teaching Support Material for Grade R–12’, which proposes abandoning the current system, in which schools choose from eight approved books per subject per grade, to no choice at all: only one book will be approved per subject per grade.
The deadline for official public submissions on the draft policy has passed. But you can still participate: support the campaign on Facebook, sign their petition, or write to a representative.
