Change, while daunting, has its benefits. It has fast-tracked the integratio­n of technology in many schools, pushing informatio­n and technology to the top of the educationa­l agenda. Many of the skills children acquired during the past year will stand them in good stead for future work as we move through the fourth and into the fifth industrial revolution.

A major responsibi­lity of parents is to ensure their children can make the most of the opportunit­ies available, whether studying in another town, overseas or at home online.

This can be a daunting new world for parents to navigate in a time of great uncertaint­y. But if the basics are in place and children have a solid foundation on which to build, any transition — be it from primary to high school, or from a traditiona­l classroom to virtual learning — can be exciting and achievable.

The South African Schools Collection — Including Tertiary Institutio­ns is a free annual publicatio­n targeted primarily at parents who need to make decisions concerning their children’s future.

The publicatio­n provides a directory of independen­t and public schools: it lists facts and figures, and showcases the facilities, ethos and foundation of educationa­l institutio­ns.

Topical issues relating to education are included in the editorial content and are aimed specifical­ly at bringing parents up to date with current trends in the education arena.

Sections in the magazine include schools, special needs, online and home schools, tertiary and school suppliers.
