The African Transformation Movement, ATM has slammed the Eastern Cape Department of Education for its failures of allegedly putting students at a disadvantage. The National Department of Basic Education has withheld R529.8 million in funding due to the province's inability to meet required standards. The party says the move comes as no surprise, given the dire state of schools in the Eastern Cape. The ATM says it's time for accountability and the province's education leadership needs to be held responsible for the crisis. Elvis Presslin spoke to ATM National Spokesperson, Zama Ntshona
