Welcome to another inspiring edition of Future SA, where we continue empowering learners, educators, parents and future leaders across South Africa.
As always, we unpack the opportunities, challenges and skills facing the Class of 2026 and beyond.
In this issue, Abigail Kok, the national top achiever of the Class of 2025 from York High School in George, shares the study tips, advice and motivation that got her there. She has since enrolled as a Data Science student at Stellenbosch University, and fills us in on that, too.
From higher education and entrepreneurship to distance learning and workplace readiness, this edition is filled with practical guidance for young South Africans navigating their futures.
We also explore Montessori-inspired ECD learning, school readiness, ADHD support, language development in the home, TVET education and the future of work in a changing economy.
Whether you’ re choosing a university, considering a gap year or preparing for your first internship, Future SA is here to inspire and guide you.
We hope the stories, insights and expert advice in this edition encourage you to dream bigger, work harder and embrace every opportunity that comes your way.
Keep building your future. Good luck!
