The South African Democratic Teachers Union is calling on the Department of Basic Education to strengthen security measures in schools.
This is to prevent kidnapping and teacher attacks, as schools are increasingly becoming soft targets for criminals.
A 45-year-old female teacher at Happydale Special School in Algoa Park, Gqeberha, was forcibly taken by three men in the school’s parking lot as she parked her car.
Sadtu’s spokesperson, Nomusa Cembi, says schools must remain sanctuaries of education and development, free from crime and violence.
