Our flagship Maths and Science TRAC programme, aimed at encouraging young people to consider and prepare for careers in science, engineering, and technology has had tremendous success for our 10 partner high schools. Established in 2019 in Hammanskraal, the programme has expanded to the Vaal. Through TRAC we assist the schools with highly experienced facilitators and equip Maths and Science learners in Grades 11 and 12 with calculators and study guides. The programme also ensures each matric learner is assisted with applying to three higher learning institutions and accessing bursaries and NFSAS. More than 1 500 of our TRAC Maths and Science learners over the past five years have gained admission to higher learning institutions, with some having been absorbed in our company apprenticeship programmes.

Our support for bridging the gaps in under-resourced schools extends beyond TRAC’s traditional classroom activities. Our Vaal Triangle factories hosted visits for more than 200 learners from our five Vaal partner high schools namely, Eskowazi, Mohloli, Lekoa Shandu, Maxeke, and Lebohang. Calculators and study guides were also provided to each learner.
