Limpopo, September 10 - Section27 wants the Department of Basic Education to initiate an independent study into schools still without books.

At least ten schools visited by the group had no books for grades R, one, two, three and ten for the 2012 school year.

The civil rights organisation appealed to the North Gauteng High Court to urge the department to complete its textbook delivery for 2013 by no later than January 9. 

Section27 has also asked that the minister provide monthly updates on the department's progress.
