| Abstract | No more research, theories or proposals. We are running out of time. We have to make a decision. Yes, Jonathan Schrire (in a letter to the Cape Times) is right when he says that ‘this is an important education debate which has serious consequences if we get it wrong’. We know the pressure is on, but we have to choose a policy regarding languages in our schools and start implementing it without looking back. It’s time to go back to basic decision-making and look at all the positive consequences and all the negative consequences of the different options. Although decision-making of this magnitude is never that simple, wasting more time on this debate is only causing more harm, making the decision harder and the ramifications more serious. |
