The Stabilisation and Governance Support Team at the College of Cape Town has already produced preliminary findings, revealing deep-rooted governance and operational issues.
Minister of Higher Education, Buti Manamela, shared the update during a media briefing on Tuesday.
“The team’s mandate is to assess the challenges, mediate where necessary, and recommend firm corrective action,” Manamela said, noting that governance, administration, and operational weaknesses must be addressed at their core.
He emphasised the need for close collaboration with students, lecturers, and college leadership to prevent unrest and disruptions.
“Readiness is stronger when built with students, lecturers and principals,” he said.
The Minister confirmed that the final report will be submitted to Parliament once completed, with firm actions to follow.
“Our priority is to stabilise the college, protect teaching and learning, and safeguard staff and students,” he added.
