An information staff meeting when the Principal is informed of some very bad news.
| 00:00 - 00:03 | Here are the latest Matrics Prelim C.A.T. results |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | We have results from many schools |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | From Joburg to Durbs |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Teachers have uploaded all their marks |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | But the marks are not as good as we thought |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | They'll be fine |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | when they study for finals. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Principal... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Matrics... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | Matrics don't study for C.A.T. anymore... |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | they think it's a waste of time... |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | If you don't teach C.A.T. ... leave |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | We're talking about C.A.T.!! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | The most essential subject of them all! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | A subject that is skills-based |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | something they can use after school |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | A waste of time??? |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | It's a waste of time if we're teaching them |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | and they learn nothing at all! |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | A waste of time if the subject had no value! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | But Principal, it is not on the "designated".. |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | "Designated" my @$$! That list means nothing! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | But Principal, if they chose IT instead... |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Don't you talk about IT in my presence |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | It's 2 letters! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | I've been involved with C.A.T. |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | since its inception in education |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | and seen its incredible value |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | with skills that could run circles around you all! |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | And you're telling me the Matrics don't study?? |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | As teachers put their blood, sweat and tears |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | into teaching every single day...with passion! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | What are they thinking? |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | They'll just walk into a job? |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | Be given the world on a platter? |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | The very skills we teach |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | can take them through the darkness |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | into the light of self-providence |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | But they think C.A.T. is not important... |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | that the world revolves around them! |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | It revolves around their ignorance! |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | We must speak with our Matrics |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | "Designated" or not |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | We must continue to teach as the most essential subject... |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | of all. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | I believe |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | They must see that input masks have a place |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | VLOOKUP is actually quite cool |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Even AVERAGEIF |
