University of Cape Town

The Schools Improvement Initiative (SII) is a response to the education crisis in South Africa.

The heraldic description of the UCT badge was first described (1859) and subsequently registered (1919) with the College of Arms.

Heritage Day is celebrated nationally on 24 September. The Heritage Trail was established to allow the UCT community to explore its own heritage in relation to broader issues in the country.

Information on Staff and Human Resources

UCT’s Media and Social Media unit communicates to internal and external audiences about university programmes, research and the activities of faculties and staff.

Registrar Royston Pillay provides an update on some of the cases reported and concluded in 2017:

UCT has been operating a whistle-blowing hotline since 2015.

The University of Cape Town (UCT) whistle-blower hotline provides staff, students and third parties an opportunity to alert the University management about matters which may not have been picked up through regular internal controls.
