A school governing body pays for all other routine expenses incurred in the operation of a school and the employment of staff. Staff not employed by the provincial education department are paid from its school fund, which is subsidised by the state. This subsidy is based on the Norms and Standards for School Funding (South African Schools' Act No. 84 of 1996), which was implemented in January 2000. It provides for the poorest of schools (numbering approximately 40 % of all public school in Kwazulu-Natal) to receive 60 % of the funds allocated for the operational needs of the schools in Kwazulu-Natal.123 penEducational fund raising--South AfricaEducation--South Africa--FinanceSchool boards--South Africa--DurbanAn examination of the fundraising duties of public school principals and governing body chairpersons in three schools in the Newlands West Circuit in the KwaMashu District.Thesishttps://doi.org/10.51415/10321/2759
