Violent community protests and their impact on teachers : a case study of Vuwani, Limpopo Province

Abstracts in English and Nyanja / Violent community protests are a common occurrence in South Africa ever since
democracy. The aim of the study was to determine teachers’ views on the impact of
violent community protests in a specific high school. Ineffective municipality leadership
led to violent community protests which disrupted schooling activities. A qualitative
design and one case study was employed in this study, and data were collected using
individual interviews, observation and document analysis. Differences in ethnicity
between community members and lack of service delivery were the cause of
community protests. The study revealed that vandalising and burning down schools
affect teachers’ ability to work. This study contributes to the body of knowledge to
create safer learning environments in South African schools. Recommendations were
made on how the community could work together and strengthen their relationship in
protecting their schools’ assets. / U gwalaba ha vhadzulapo ho no tou vha kutshilele kwa misi fhano Africa Tshipembe u
