Title: South African Committee of Higher Education (SACHED)
Alternative Title: SACHED; SACHED Trust
Subject - Occupation: Educational organisation
Description: Founded in 1959 as a direct response to the Extension of University Education Act, which segregated South African universities. SACHED initially provided bursaries and tutorials for black students to study for University of London degrees by correspondence, bypassing apartheid institutions. Over decades, it expanded into a massive alternative education "hub," producing radical learning materials, running distance education colleges (Turret College), and pioneering "People's Education" through newspaper supplements and magazines like Upbeat.
