COSAS-Amandlethu Sec. School Welcome to COSAS-Amandlethu Sec. School official page It saw the
UDF as representing a common platform to
fight for a free and democratic South Africa.

The Congress of South African Students
( COSAS) is an anti-apartheid student
organisation established in 1979 in the wake of
the June 16 Soweto Uprisings in 1976 in South
Africa . In its first two years COSAS took up
two commemorative campaigns that
authorities saw as African National Congress-
supporting; the 1979 hanging of uMkhonto
weSizwe (MK) guerrilla Solomon Mahlangu and
the centenary of th

e Zulu victory over British
troops at Isandhlwana. In 1982, COSAS adopted the theme; “Student-
worker action” and promoted the formation of
youth congresses to serve the interests of
young workers and unemployed youth. The
organization provided essential support to
striking workers and community struggles
around issues such as transport increases, rent
hikes and the like. In 1983, the COSAS welcomed the formation of
the United Democratic Front (UDF) and played
a key role in the formation of the regional UDF
structures in all of the provinces. Throughout the 1980s, under the banner of
COSAS, students staged a variety of resistance
tactics like boycotts and strikes. In Cradock,
Eastern Cape students from seven schools
boycotted the transfer of Matthew Goniwe , a
teacher and anti-apartheid activist who was
later murdered by apartheid security forces. COSAS has the stated goal of uniting and
representing South African students of poor
and disadvantaged backgrounds at "the Pre-
Tertiary Level". The COSAS moto is “Each
One Teach One”. COSAS was preceded by South African
Students' Movement , that organisation having
been banned by the Apartheid government in
1977.

Mlawu Was Not Born in Amaoti. Probably doesn't know the community of Amaoti. Mlawu Isgebengu, came to destruct our very designated Educational System. He must Fotsek off our School.

Education is not a test of perfections and 100% pass rate competition, but a bridge between the poorness and the better life for all. Mr Mlawu is serving his personal interests, instant of principality.
