Abstract

The influence of syncretism in the post-1994 education dispensation is  discussed using the following documents: the White paper on education and training (1995), the Faller Report on religious education (1999), the Chisholm Report on the review of Curriculum 2005 (2000), the Draft revised national curriculum statement for grades R-9 (2001), the Manifesto on values, education and democracy (2001) and the Revised national curriculum statement for grades R-9 (2002). The article shows clearly that the current influence of syncretism necessitates a Biblical, reformational and antithetical approach, which constantly emphasises the importance of the educator and parents’ role in the teaching and education of the child in the contemporary South African educational system.
