In general, a Technical Matric (National Certificate Vocational Level 4) is not considered equivalent to a traditional Senior Certificate (Grade 12) in South Africa, and it may not be sufficient to meet the minimum qualifications required to become a teacher.
To become a teacher in South Africa, you would typically need to have at least a Bachelor’s degree in Education or a relevant teaching qualification from a recognized institution. In addition, you may need to meet specific requirements set by the South African Council for Educators (SACE), such as completing a teaching internship or passing the relevant teacher certification exams.
However, it is important to note that the specific qualifications and requirements to become a teacher can vary depending on the level and subject you wish to teach, as well as the regulations of the province or school district in which you wish to work. Therefore, I would recommend checking with the relevant authorities or institutions to determine the specific qualifications and requirements needed to pursue a career in teaching.
