In January every year, South Africa pauses to take stock of its future as the National Senior Certificate results are released. Across the country, families celebrate hard-won passes, distinctions circulate on social media, and schools proudly showcase their top achievers. These moments matter.
They reflect perseverance in a system that routinely asks young people to succeed against formidable odds
Yet as this year’s results were announced, I was thousands of kilometres away, attending an international symposium on entrepreneurship education at Babson College in the United States.
This is an institution widely regarded as the global epicentre of entrepreneurship education. The contrast was not merely symbolic, it was instructive.
South Africa celebrates educational milestones with ceremony, but too often fails to connect schooling to the economic realities young people face once the applause fades. Each year, close to 900 000 learners write matric. Roughly 650 000 obtain the certificate.
A more coherent approach would embed entrepreneurship as a learning method across the schooling journey, invest in educator capability, and strengthen institutional links between schools, communities, and the economy.
This includes exposing learners to real-world value chains, entrepreneurs, and economic problems
Standing at Babson, surrounded by educators from across the world, one conclusion became unavoidable: countries that thrive will be those that equip their young people to act, not merely to qualify.
Celebration is important. But transformation is essential. If we get entrepreneurship education right, matric results will no longer mark an ending, but the beginning of multiple, credible futures.

The European Parliament on Tuesday approved legislation implementing the EU-U.S. trade deal, marking the final parliamentary step before the agreement formally takes effect.
The legislation removed most tariffs on industrial and agricultural goods from the United States and added safeguard mechanisms, stipulating that the agreement would remain in force until the end of 2029 unless renewed.
It also allowed the European Union (EU) to suspend the agreement if Washington fails to honor its commitments or takes measures that disrupt trade and investment.
U.S. President, Donald Trump had threatened to sharply raise tariffs on EU exports if the bloc failed to implement the trade agreement by July 4. As a next step, the legislation would be submitted to the Council of the European Union for approval.
Once formally adopted, it would enter into force on the day following its publication in the EU’s Official Journal. The EU and the United States reached a trade agreement in July 2025.
Its approval within the EU was delayed for months amid strained transatlantic relations, including tensions over Trump’s demands regarding Greenland and legal uncertainty surrounding the administration’s sweeping tariff policy
