The Gauteng Provincial Government will on Wednesday (17 April), host the School Safety Summit at Birchwood Hotel and Conference Centre, Boksburg. This is due to the recent incidents of gangsterism, bullying, break-ins at schools as well as violence against learners and educators within the schooling environment.
The summit to be held under the theme “Safer school to support learning and teaching” will discuss these safety challenges and develop a common approach in tackling them and enhancing conducive learning in schools.
The event will be attended by about 3000 stakeholders including the Gauteng Premier, Gauteng MECs for Community Safety and Education, Deputy Minister of Basic Education, School Principals, School Governing Body members, Organized Labour, Representative Council of Learners and Student Movements.
