22	Managing learner aggression in rural secondary schools in the Empangeni District of KwaZulu-Natal Singh, Gunam Dolan 06 1900 (has links) The aim of this study was to investigate the causes and consequences of learner aggression in rural secondary schools in the Empangeni District of KwaZulu-Natal. The study also sought to establish the management strategies required to manage learner aggression in rural secondary schools. An in-depth literature study was conducted in this regard. A qualitative research design and methodology was adopted to investigate the phenomenon through an interview process with participants from five rural secondary schools.
