1. FOREWORD BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF SAASTA SAASTA, as one of the three pillars of National Research Foundation (NRF), has played a key role towards steering young minds towards careers in science, engineering, technology and innovation; interacting with the public on issues of science, engineering and technology (SET); and communicating advances of science and technology to the public. As an organisation, our role is to change lives and make a contribution towards providing South Africa with skilled human capacity, especially in the critical areas of SET. Over the past 47 years, SAASTA (known as FEST until 2002 when it became part of the NRF) has been promoting science and technology through a number of initiatives and has thus been contributing towards addressing the shortage of skills in SET. Our success in this field is evident from a number of professionals who are actively involved in the economy of this country and who have indicated that they, to a certain extent, occupy their positions in society because they were identified and nurtured through our interventions, in particular the National Science Olympiad. Professor Tshilidzi Marwala, the Executive Dean at the faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment at the University of Johannesburg was one of those who participated in our youth programmes. He says that his life changed after participating in our National Science Olympiad and being one of the top learners who attended the Science Focus Week in Pretoria and the Science Youth Forum in London. Recently Professor Marwala who won an award at the NSTF-BHP Billiton Awards said: I cannot emphasise enough that young people must understand that the basis of a modern economy is to develop a society where numerical ability is quite advanced. No one should be intimidated by numbers. Marwala added that The only economic policy that makes sense is to capacitate people to think independently and in an innovative and confident manner so that they can tackle the world with all its complexity. The result is individuals who see a problem and then think of solutions with socio-economic value. This is what we stand for as an organisation. We are living in a technological revolution that shapes the way in which society should take decisions in order to survive and deal with challenges brought about by this revolution. We intend to put the world of science and technology in societys hands because the ways in which technology is used cannot be understood without understanding how the technology is embedded in its social context (Oscar Ricci: 2010). The challenges that we face to ensure that the country is self-sufficient in SET human capital so that we can deal with the challenges of the 21st century and beyond are huge, but achievable. In this regard I call upon all the stakeholders in SET; in particular government departments, professional associations, higher education institutions, science councils and the business sector to join us in our campaign to promote awareness and understanding of the beneficial role of science and technology amongst our youth and the general public. In conclusion, I want to thank and commend the over 24 000 learners who took part in the 47th National Science Olympiad, in particular those who made it to the top 100. I also wish to take this opportunity to commend all the educators who encourage and prepare their learners to participate in the Olympiad; your efforts are really encouraging. Lastly, I wish to salute and thank our sponsors, namely Harmony Gold Mining Company (Pty) Ltd and the Department of Science and Technology. Your continuous support in identifying and nurturing talent in the critical areas of Mathematics, Science and Technology is highly appreciated. Your continuous investment in Science Education will always bear long-term benefits for generations to come and we look forward to your continued investment in these activities.

Ms Beverley Damonse Executive Director: NRF/SAASTA 1

2. MESSAGE OF SUPPORT AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM THE SCIENCE EDUCATION MANAGER We are living in a technological revolution that is rapidly changing the way we live. This revolution has brought the added need for qualified personnel such as scientist, innovators, researchers, engineers, technicians, medical doctors, biotechnologists and other related professionals in order to cope with and address the needs of the society during the 21st century and beyond. A strong background in Mathematics, Physical Science and Life Science will open career opportunities for our youth and make them marketable in this increasingly scientific, technological and competitive society. This is exactly what the South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement (SAASTA) intends to achieve through its Science Education Unit. Through our many outreach and awareness programmes, the Science Education unit aims to identify and nurture talent in Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Technology (SET) and thus encourage our youth to pursue careers in these critical areas. To achieve our aim, we conceptualise, manage and implement projects that promote SET to educators and learners. We focus on the following three areas: School science support: This includes educator and learner programmes, science enrichment programmes and competitions; namely: Learner and Educator Development Programme for Primary Schools, Junior Natural Science Olympiad, Biotechnology and Biodiversity, Science Camps, Nurturing Talent in SET, National Science Week and the National Science Olympiad. SET Careers: This comprises career promotional materials, role modelling campaigns, job shadowing, SET innovation, and entrepreneurship initiatives. Science resources: This includes curriculum-based support resources, enrichment materials, web-based materials and online learning.

Through our interventions/programmes, we support the DSTs Youth into Science Strategy and the Department of Basic Educations National Strategy for Mathematics, Science and Technology Education which gave birth to the Dinaledi initiative in 2002. The National Science Olympiad is our flagship project which has enabled us to identify talent over the past years. Its encouraging to note that participation and performance have been steadily improving over the past few years. This year over 24 000 learners across the nine province and some SADC countries participated. This is our highest number of participants since the National Science Olympiads started in 1964. It would be impossible to acknowledge adequately all the people/organisations who have been supportive and influential in accomplishing this task. However, I wish to put on record my sincere gratitude and appreciation to those organisations and individuals who made it possible for us to reach this record number of learners this year: Harmony Gold Mining Company; Department of Science and Technology; Department of Basic Education ( National and provincial Mathematics, Technology and Science coordinators) Principals, Heads of Department and Physical Science educators from over 700 schools across the country; Principals, Heads of Department and Physical Science educators of schools from SADC countries, in particular Zimbabwe, Lesotho and Namibia; Examiners and moderators of the National Science Olympiad question papers; All the over 24 000 learners who participated in the 47th National Science Olympiad; and All the SAASTAs staff in particular Science Education unit.

3. ABOUT THE NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION(NRF) The NRF was established through the National Research Foundation Act (Act No 23 of 1998). The objective of the National Research Foundation (NRF) is to support and promote research through funding, human capacity development and the provision of the necessary research facilities, in order to facilitate the creation of knowledge, innovation and development in all fields of the natural and social sciences, humanities and technology, including indigenous knowledge systems. In order to enable the NRF to deliver on its mandate, the organisation has three main functions: to support research and innovation through its agency, Research and Innovation Support and Advancement (RISA); to encourage an interest in science and technology through its business unit, the South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement (SAASTA); and to facilitate high-end research through its National Research Facilities.

4. NATIONAL SCIENCE OLYMPIAD PROGRAMME 4.1. Programme Brief Science Olympiads are used internationally as a means of promoting science and excellence in science. SAASTAs Science Olympiad not only contributes towards excellence in science, but has huge potential in expanding participation levels of previously excluded groups and simultaneously building the capability in the sciences. SAASTAs National Science Olympiad is a project that was started in 1964, initially for grade 12 learners with the objective of promoting science. Now in its 47th year, the competition continues to be one of SAASTAs flagship projects. Since 2005, the project has been offering learners in grades 10 12 an exciting opportunity to compete and interact in the science arena with fellow learners from all the nine province of South Africa, SADC countries such as Lesotho, Namibia and Zimbabwe and also their counterparts from Australia. The competition comprises an annual examination in science, and top learners and schools stands a chance to win over 50 awards. The top national performers in different categories stand a chance to win an all-expenses paid trip to the London International Youth Science Forum. The Olympiad currently comprises two papers/streams: Physical Science (Physics & Chemistry) and Life Science (Biology). Learners can choose to write either the Physical Science or Life Science paper. The main aim of the competition is to encourage excellence in science education, yet also to stimulate interest in the sciences. It further seeks to inspire young people to consider careers in science, engineering and technology. To ensure that talent in SET is identified and nurtured, a group of 120 learners who excelled or demonstrate potential in the Olympiad examination, are traditionally invited to participate in a Science Focus Week during July school holidays. The activities consist of stimulating lecturers, excursions, industry visits and other fun events. This culminates into a high profile Award Giving Ceremony where prizes are given to deserving learners and schools.

4.2. Milestones Over the years, a number of milestones were achieved through the National Science Olympiad, in particular: 4.2.1. A major three years sponsorship was secured from Harmony Gold Mining Company. The Department of Science and Technology (DST) also provided funding to increase participation of Dinaledi Schools;

6. CHALLENGES Listed below are some of the noticeable challenges facing the project? On average, approximately 10% of the schools in South Africa participated in the National Science Olympiad over the past five years. The province with the highest number in 2011 is Gauteng (7 748) followed by Limpopo (5 972). There is therefore an urgent need to increase participation across the nine provinces, in particular the Northern Cape (352) and the Western Cape (1 483); In most schools, the Olympiad still has the greatest appeal to more able learners. Therefore there is a need to identify and nurture more learners who have potential, especially those who are from disadvantaged schools and communities; The poor performance of some learners who sit for this Olympiad examination raises an issue of concern, especially those who are from rural areas and those who opt for the Physical Science paper. During 2011, only 126 learners scored a mark of 50% and above in the Physical Science paper and 49 in the Life Science paper. There seems to be very limited educator support in coaching and preparing learners to excel in the competition. SAASTA has already started to address this issue by investing in teacher development at some schools.
