Thesis (M.Dev. (Planning and Management)) -- University of Limpopo, 2022 / The purpose of this study was to explore the role of SMTs in providing and sustaining
schools’ sanitation infrastructure. Qualitative research approach was conducted to
determine if the SMT members fully understand the role that they can play in
sustaining sanitation facilities in their schools. Primary data was collected using semi structured questionnaires using qualitative research method. Twenty SMT members
from five sampled schools from Man’ombe Circuit in Mopani East Education District
were used as respondents. The study highlighted that provision of sanitation
infrastructure which is not accompanied by effective management of those
infrastructure cannot be sustained. Management was selected as a theoretical
framework to clearly state the duties of SMT members as managers in the school
community they are based in. Areas of potential effective role performance and areas
of potential role conflict in school sanitation infrastructure were highlighted. The
findings revealed that SMTs do not fully understand their role when it comes to school
sanitation.
