Giyani College Of Technology And Management (Giyani)

Giyani College of Technology and Management. Technology. Management. Eight learners. Broe, what exactly are you managing? You have got more teachers than a school needs and barely enough students to fill a minibus taxi. Seven educators for eight kids, that is not a school, that is a tutoring centre that took things too far and registered with the Department of Education for clout. The learner to educator ratio is 1.1 to 1. ONE POINT ONE. Some of those teachers genuinely have less than one full student to deal with. Imagine marking a test and it takes you four minutes because your entire class is basically one and a bit people. The sports day must be something special, hey. Eight kids, seven coaches. The tug of war is just two kids and everyone else shouting instructions. And "College of Technology and Management" in Giyani is doing a lot of heavy lifting as a name. The name sounds like it should be in Sandton with a rooftop parking and a coffee bar. But no, we are in Giyani, Limpopo, where the vision is big, the campus is mysterious, and the entire matric class can fit in one Uber if the driver takes the seven-seater. Overall verdict: Giyani College of Technology and Management has more staff than students, which either means the education is absolutely elite or someone miscounted, but either way those eight kids are probably getting more attention than anyone at a school with a waiting list.
