SOUTH AFRICAN COUNCIL FOR EDUCATORS ANNUAL PERFORMANCE PLAN 2021/2022 SCHEDULE 3A FOREWORD BY THE CHAIRPERSON The 2021/2022 financial year coincides with the end-of-term of office for the 2017-2021 SACE Council, as the professional body’s Accounting Authority. Over the three and half years of its four-year term of office, Council developed the 2020 – 2025 strategic plan that details out SACE’s vision and direction for the new five-year planning cycle. Consequently, I am pleased to present the 2021/2022 SACE Annual Performance Plan which forms part of the second financial year for the produced 2020 – 2025 strategic plan. Notably, the SACE constituencies and stakeholders have been instrumental in informing the development of the five-yearSACE strategic plan which is being realized through this APP, amongst others. This shows that the teaching profession is living according to the true principles of SACE as professional self-regulatory body for the profession by the profession. Furthermore, it is my believe that this APP will go a long way in inspiring a credible teaching profession and responding to the professional needs of the teaching profession as expressed in various legislation and policies. While the entire education sector and teaching profession in particular experienced challengesand uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, I am encouraged that the necessary measures have been put in place to respond effectively and serve the profession accordingly. Therefore, Council commits itself to ensuring that the 2021/2022 APP is implemented appropriately to ensure that the professionally registered educators are served with dignity and pride. Mr ML Cele Chairperson of the Council SACE | ANNUAL PERFORMANCE PLAN 2021 ACCOUNTING OFFICER STATEMENT 2020/2021 has been inundated with various programme performance challenges as a result of the unprecedent COVID-19 pandemic across the entire education system and teaching profession alike. Consequently, some of the Programme Indicators’ targets could not be achieved as planned, despite an attempt to adjust the APP accordingly in June/July period. Based on the 2020/2021 experiences and reflections, lessons learned were used to inform the new normal and programmes in the 2021/2022 APP. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to run its course during this planning period, there is a need for adaptive, collaborative, and transformative management and leadership that is responsive to the prevailing situation as well. Therefore, the SACE 2021/22 APP is presented against the backdrop of the strengthened organisational Information, Communication and Technology (ICT), as well as Communication strategies to accommodate the new normal and opportunities, and enhance the service delivery to the teaching profession accordingly. Also, SACE depends largely on teachers’ levies in terms of its main funding stream. Currently it receives monthly R15 .00 levy per teacher, and this amount has not been increased in the last five years. Given the economic challenges in the country generally, the situation is likely to be the same during the 2021/2022 financial year, adding to the challenges experienced with COVID-19 pandemic already. Based on these constraints, some of the Programmes would be affected in terms of delivering service adequately due to the reduction of targets. In line with the reflected context above, the 2021/22 APP presents six Programmes as follows: Administration, Professional Registration, Ethical Standards, Professional Development, Professional Standards and Research. Administration Programme will ensure effective governance and provide the necessary administrative, planning, monitoring and evaluation, communication, and ICT support to all other Programmes. Through the Professional Registration Through the Professional Registration Programme, fit-topractice educators will be registered subsequent to their screening against the South African Police
