The effect of consciousness of social, political and historical context on adjustment of undergraduate students at the University of Cape Town : a qualitative study

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

It has been shown that black students are generally not finding the academic success in South African universities that would confirm a truly equitable educational system. In response to this, universities in South Africa have taken several different measures to bridge this gap and provide the support needed for these students to thrive through various programmes that provide supplementary support and extended degree programmes to educationally disadvantaged students.
