Most read: Parents in Johannesburg have expressed their disapproval and shock at the neglect by educators of Parktown Boys High School learners that has been detailed in a report on the drowning death of EnockMpianzi

The report found that the educators who accompanied the learners on a camp at the Nyati Bush Lodge were negligent and failed to fulfil their duties.

Mpianzi died after a makeshift raft – he and his fellow pupils had built – capsized in the Crocodile River. These parents are not impressed. Another one adds, “Sometimes the mistake is governments. The government must hire people accordingly, not just hire anyone to be a teacher. Government is also to blame.”

“The first point that we must look at is how do we strengthen such policies? We now hear that the consent form is going to be strengthened to include declaring the place to be visited, a safe place or to do a visit to that place first and determine its safety. The second point is how many teachers must accompany 100 learners, for example.

That school is still open? 😳 The teachers care nothing about the pupils. Would've pulled my child out long time ago.
