The matric class of 2020 are expected to get their results on the 22nd of February.

The week of the 14th of February to the 20th of February also marks: Teen and Suicide Prevention Week.

Stacey and J Sbu will be featuring some insights for parents and students for the month of February focusing on the class of 2020. The topics and conversations will be tailored to a different topic and have the opinion of an expert.

This week the focus is on mental wellness.

It is no secret that the suicide rate spikes during this time period with many students feeling the mounting pressure to pass their final year.
