The Department says participating schools have confirmed placements for Assistants and submitted their validated data.<\/p>\n
However, some of the data is being reviewed due to issues including duplicate or invalid ID numbers and incorrect banking details.<\/p>\n
Gauteng Education Spokesperson, Steve Mabona says only Assistants whose details have been verified and cleared will receive payment in batches.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose still undergoing verification will be paid once their data is finalised. The Department is working tirelessly to complete this process before the end of July 2025. We will work tirelessly to ensure that all Assistants receive their full payments once the verification is complete,\u201d Mabona said.<\/p>\n
