Meanwhile, law enforcement agencies have started to investigate the alleged 2024 matric results leak.

They include the Hawks and the State Security Agency.

This follows public outrage at reports that an independent online platform has been selling the results for R100 before Basic Education Minister Siviwe Gwarube’s official release this evening.

Many are questioning how the platform gained access to such sensitive information.

Addressing the media at a breakfast for the top achievers in Johannesburg, Gwarube says that her department suspects the leak to have happened in the end processes of the release of the results.
