REFILWE Nkwinika (30) wants to be a police officer, but that can't happen because a local school is allegedly refusing to give her a report.
The woman said her wish is to help fight crime in Mzansi.
She is appealing to the North West Department of Education to help her get the report at Mmakaunyane Secondary School.
Refilwe is accusing a local school of failing.
The concerned woman said her life is stuck.
The woman from Mmakaunyane in North West dropped her schooling in 2011 in Grad 11 because of pregnancy.
In January 2012, she went back to school but was told that she lost textbooks and agreed.
She said the eight books cost R1 360, and the painful thing is that she can't afford to buy them.
"I realised school is important. I want to go back to school I but don't have money," Refilwe said.

She plans to go to an adult school to further her schooling.
"My life is at a standstill because the school has refused to give me a school report since 2012. I want my report so that I can do matric," she said.
Refilwe relies on her parents' grants and wants a better job to help support her family.
A public representative, Shangy Mbekwa, said he was disappointed about the missing documentation of Refilwe.
"Her future is stuck in the middle of nowhere. This might be incompetence. The department should help her get her report so that her future is not jeopardised," he said.
Shangy said this was traumatising and should be treated as a matter of urgency.
"I have tried to intervene, but she is not getting help," he said.
North West Department of Education spokesman Elias Malindi said: "Refilwe must visit the school so that she can engage with the principal regarding the matter."
Malindi said she visited the school on Wednesday, 6 September.
