ABOUT US

SAPA was formed in 1995 at a launching conference in the Western Cape. It is based on the principles of non-alignment to any political party or organisation, or to any other educator body or union. This paves the way for individuals to be members of the major teacher unions in South Africa and also be members of SAPA. While SAPA is the national umbrella body, the association effectively functions at a provincial level. Each province elects its own executive committee to organise activities within the province, such as conferences, local seminars, newsletters, negotiations with provincial education departments in the interests of members etc.

Members carry out all the work of the association on a voluntary basis and no official is remunerated for his/her work. The main source of funding is the annual membership fee, currently payable to the provincial treasurer. A percentage of this subscription (currently R100) is disbursed to the treasurer of SAPA for utilisation by the national executive.

What are the benefits for you as a Principal?

Membership of a professional body which aims at enhancing your skills and professional development so that you will feel more confident about the task of leading your school.
The opportunity to attend local and provincial workshops, seminars and conferences organized by your executive and which are in tune with local needs. Your participation at the local and provincial level will determine the effectiveness of the association.
Through the provincial representatives, information fed down to grassroots level from national and provincial education authorities; in other words an effective communication channel.
