Basic education in the language of choice : a contextual interpretation / Johan Christiaan BornmanBornman, Johan Christiaan January 2010 (has links)
This thesis explores the constitutional right to receive basic education in the
language of choice. This fundamental human right imposes a duty on the state to
provide children with education in the language of their choice whenever
reasonably practicable. It is not a matter of whether the state has to fulfil section
29(2) of the Constitution, but rather how to give effect to this provision.
The right to receive basic education in the language of your choice is however,
qualified by the specific internal limitation that provides that the right is subject to
the condition that provision of education in the preferred language has to be
reasonably practicable. Section 36, the limitation clause, is also a measure that
can be used to limit this right.
The aim of this paper is to contextually interpret the fundamental right to receive
education in the language of one’s choice and to weigh up the intent of the
provision to the provision’s actual result. All relevant factors will be taken into
consideration to examine the possibility of limiting the right to receive instruction
in the language of choice to comply with the purpose of education and the best
interests of the child. / Thesis (LL.M. (Comparative Child Law))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2010.

Investigation into the implementation of the childrens act no 38 of 2005 in mainstream schools in the Fort Beaufort education districtMankazana, Sobantu Vincent January 2012 (has links)
In this study the focus is on the implementation of the Children’s Act in mainstream schools. The Children’s Act mandates that all children who are in need of care both in school and out of school should be taken care of and be protected. However, they are often not afforded the full opportunity to enjoy the benefits of this Act. This is due to various factors that hinder the process of its implementation in mainstream schools. The main emphasis of this study is on the factors that hinder the implementation of the Children’s Act. The aim of the Children’s Act is to look after and provide services and support to children in need of care and protection. In order to provide such services and support to children, one needs to first identify such learners in need of care and their needs. Having done this, the support needed can be assessed and provided. This process is not easily achieved in mainstream schools. This study seeks to determine the factors that discourage the implementation process of the Children’s Act in mainstream schools. Data collection for this study included face to face interviews with teachers who are principals of schools and Life Orientation teachers, a social workers and school nurse. The data was used to analyze and interpret the challenges that hinder the implementation of the Children’s Act in mainstream schools. Among others, the study found that there is a lack of collaboration among stakeholders and coordination of service delivery. Poor parental involvement and commitment to parent involvement programmes was also evident. However, to a limited degree, there is interaction between the schools and relevant government departments. The study recommends that multidisciplinary teams should be formed whereby scarce resources can be shared. Various professionals should have the opportunity to come together toshare ideas and information. In order to encourage identification of learners in need of care, it is recommended that, the peer groups or peer educators be established and awareness campaign be conducted in schools. The study also recommends that developmental assessment programmes be conducted. Developmental assessment programmes will help gather information directly from learners or from an appropriate adult in the child’s life. They provide frameworks which can be used as guides for eliciting and analysing information.
