The end of the apartheid system in South Africa in
1994
brought with
it the end of legally sanctioned racial segregation in schools. In practice,
however, racial disparities in educational attainment continue, with
white and Asian students outperforming the country s African majority in
school. Such a gap in achievement has a significant impact on the ability
of Africans to get jobs and escape poverty. Human Capital Formation: History,
Expectations, and Challenges in South Africa investigates the causes of
South Africa s persistent schooling imbalances, examining education laws
and policies, as well as other influences on human capital investment. The
study finds that inaccessibility of quality education, resulting from a lack
of financial resources at both the local and household levels, is currently
a significant constraint on educational attainment among the poor. This
limitation will likely relax in the future as the government continues to
subsidize schools, but the study also concludes that educational disparities
cannot be overcome by direct attention to schools alone. For example, children
require adequate nutrition at the pre-school stage in order to perform well in
school. Furthermore, parental death or illness resulting from the HIV/AIDS
epidemic can disrupt the education of adolescents, who might need to leave
school to care for their parents or support their family. Steps to compensate
for these problems, as well as improved access to schools, are necessary.
These findings clarify the problems underlying inequalities in educational
attainment, offering guidance to policymakers, development specialists,
and others concerned with South Africa s welfare.
