💨 Abstract

The Information Regulator is appealing a Pretoria High Court ruling that allowed the publication of matric results in newspapers. Education activist Hendrick Makaneta supports this move, arguing it will clarify the balance between public access to information and learner privacy. The Supreme Court of Appeal's decision could significantly impact future publication practices. The 2025 matric results are scheduled for release in January 2026.
