Safety at schools a priority, says Cabinet

EDWIN NAIDU

SCHOOL safety in South Africa remains a top priority for the government and reports of violence between learners and educators are a severe cause for concern, noted Cabinet in a statement last Thursday.

While the Department of Basic Education has implemented mechanisms to combat this scourge, parents and guardians have been urged to collaborate with school authorities and learners to ensure that schools remain safe places for learners to develop and become responsible citizens.

“The safety of our educators at schools is also paramount,” the statement said.

The cabinet reassures South Africans that the South African Police Service (SAPS) is being strengthened to prevent crime. If you have information that can help expose people involved in illegal activities, call Crime Stop at 0800 10111.
