BACK GROUND
Hidden in every classroom, amongst familiar faces and personalities, sits a child engulfed in rage.
These children could be pushed over the edge of sanity by a variety of circumstances, perhaps the breakdown of family relationships, poverty, stress or unfair treatment at school, bullying or often just a pile up of several different problems.
Stress generates rage and rage generates violence. Pushed beyond breaking point, the learner sometimes lashes out randomly at who ever happens to be at hand, perhaps an educator or a group of learners – this could result in death.
Crime statistics show that in the last year in South African Schools:
- 345 assault with the intent to cause grievous bodily harm(assault GBH) and 546 common assault cases
- 9 Murders and 19 attempted murders
Many teachers are fed-up as they believe the measures to combat serious ill-discipline in schools is not working. The failure of schools to manage ill-discipline breeds more ill-discipline and other forms of violence such as bullying. These challenges originate first and foremost from the upbringing of the children in their homes.
