In 2012, the situation of the school was as follows: The socio-economic level of the school is at a low level with high unemployment in the Guguletu township. Many learners stay with their grandparents and their parents have disappeared from the scene. Those parents who do earn a salary usually have a drinking problem. The mothers usually keep on drinking during pregnancy and the learners suffer at school because of that. The school is a quintile 3 school receiving food parcels from the Nutritional programme of the Western Cape Education Department (WCED) (c.f. [[Video/Exponentials|here]] about the meaning of 'quintile'). There are significant health issues, and many learners have poor concentration ability. These issues also apply to [[Video/Exponentials|Masiphumelele Primary School]]. | In 2012, the situation of the school was as follows: The socio-economic level of the school is at a low level with high unemployment in the Guguletu township.
