General Education Certificate (GEC) – Technical & Vocational Pathways
At Latitude Home Education, we’re excited to offer the General Education Certificate (GEC) with Technical and Vocational subjects as part of our Grade 8 and 9 curriculum. The GEC is a new qualification introduced by the Department of Basic Education (DBE) in South Africa, and it’s opening up a world of opportunities for learners to explore academic, vocational, and occupational pathways—all while preparing for the future.
The General Education Certificate equips learners with the foundational knowledge and practical skills they need to make informed decisions about their future. Whether a learner is academically inclined or more hands-on, the GEC gives them the flexibility to:
• Continue on a traditional academic path
• Pursue technical and vocational subjects
• Explore real-world occupational opportunities
It’s about creating choices, building confidence, and preparing learners for both further study and the world of work.
