58. CONCLUSION 2011 has seen the system stabilising and the introduction of key interventions in the sector such as CAPS, Workbooks, ANA and ASIDI. During the coming financial year these interventions will be consolidated to improve learner performance. The positive sentiment in the country must be leveraged to pursue the objectives contained in the Action Plan to 2014. 5858
