This is how the Clinical and Sport psychologist, Dr. Keitumetse “Tumi” Mashego, explains the surge of violence and tearing through South African schools. “We are an anxious, violent, stressed, and wounded nation”, said Clinical and Sport Psychologist Keitumetse “Tumi” Mashego. Brutal incidents are emerging across KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng, the Western Cape, the Eastern Cape, the North West, and beyond. Learners and teachers are facing stabbings, mob brawls, gang fights, and deep psychological scars, while school safety systems buckle under the pressure. Mashego stressed that both victims and perpetrators often act from unresolved trauma. She called for schools to deploy multidisciplinary support teams comprising psychologists, social workers, and medical professionals. The Department of Basic Education’s Elijah Mhlanga echoed calls for shared responsibility, warning that schools alone cannot carry the burden of solving a broader social crisis. “It all starts in the home,” Mhlanga said. He further said that “children are not taught values like respect and empathy at home; they are unlikely to carry those values into the classroom”. Mhlanga added that while schools teach positive values through the curriculum, these messages are undermined if they are not reinforced at home. “The real challenges are parenting, not policy”, he said. “No amount of policymaking will work if there is no change in behaviour at an individual level”. He further pointed out that while schools teach positive values through the curriculum, these messages are undermined if they are not reinforced at home. He further pointed out that the psychological needs of learners are often rooted in domestic issues such as gender-based violence and conflict, problems that only families can fully address. In Gauteng, six Grade 12 learners from Hoёrskool Roodepoort were suspended following a brutal retaliation attack on August 19, that left three learners seriously injured and a principal stabbed while trying to intervene. The attack followed a viral video of a previous altercation at nearby West Ridge High School. In June this year, in Pretoria East, a Grade 11 pupil was fatally stabbed outside Lesedi Secondary School by a Grade 12 learner who was reported to be waiting for him after school near the scholar transport area. The Gauteng police have opened a murder case. Source: H. Ntazi (2025). Our children are not safe: Inside South Africa's school violence crisis (The Star), 26 August 2025. Available at: 3 SECTION A
