How to Change SASSA SRD Cellphone number 2024

SASSA is no longer allowing people to change their phone number on their website due to a number of reasons, including: •To prevent fraud and abuse. SASSA has seen an increase in fraudulent applications for the SRD grant, and changing the phone number can be a way for fraudsters to circumvent security measures. •To improve efficiency. SASSA is processing millions of SRD applications, and allowing people to change their phone number would add to the workload and make it more difficult to process applications quickly. •To ensure that beneficiaries receive important information. SASSA uses the registered phone number to communicate with beneficiaries about their applications, payments, and other important information. If the phone number is changed, beneficiaries may miss out on important information. If you need to change your phone number, you can do so by submitting an appeal on the SASSA website.

What is meant by the term “Bill of rights” and indicate TWO reasons why discriminatory behaviour in South Africa continues despite the existence of the Bill of rights.


A Bill of Rights is a document that outlines the fundamental rights and freedoms that every individual is entitled to. In South Africa, the Bill of Rights is enshrined in the country's constitution and sets out the basic human rights that are protected by law.


Two reasons why discriminatory behavior in South Africa continues despite the existence of the Bill of Rights are:


  • Lack of enforcement: Although the Bill of Rights guarantees certain rights and freedoms, the government may fail to enforce these rights. This can be due to a lack of political will or resources, as well as corruption and inefficiencies within the justice system. Discriminatory behavior may continue because perpetrators are not held accountable for their actions. 
Clarify why the Bill of rights provides for Section 36 which sets limits to the exercise of all the rights in South Africa.  
  • Structural inequality: Discriminatory behavior may also persist due to structural inequalities that have been inherited from South Africa's apartheid past. Despite significant progress in redressing the imbalances created by apartheid, many people still face socio-economic challenges that make them vulnerable to discrimination. For example, poverty, unemployment, and inadequate access to education and healthcare can limit opportunities and perpetuate discrimination against certain groups.

Distinguish between the admission point score and the national benchmark test

The admission point score (APS) and the national benchmark test are two different assessments used in the South African tertiary education system to evaluate students' academic performance and potential. The admission point score (APS) is a score calculated based on a student's performance in their final Grade 12 examinations. It is a cumulative score based on the student's performance in six subjects, each of which is assigned a specific weighting. The APS score is used by universities and other tertiary institutions in South Africa to determine which students meet the minimum entry requirements for specific courses or programs. On the other hand, the national benchmark test (NBT) is an assessment administered to students who have already been accepted into tertiary education programs. The NBT is designed to evaluate a student's academic readiness for tertiary education, focusing on critical academic skills such as reading, writing, and quantitative reasoning. The resu
