LITERATURE REVIEW: ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF DISCIPLINE IN SCHOOLS
INTRODUCTION
The question of discipline in schools remains a significant issue in educational research and policy
discussions worldwide. Effective discipline is essential for creating a safe and conducive learning
environment, and understanding how to address discipline problems is critical for educators,
policymakers, and researchers alike. This literature review will explore how discipline issues can be
effectively addressed in schools, drawing on global, continental, and local perspectives. The review aims
to provide a comprehensive analysis of the origins, causes, effects, and potential solutions to indiscipline
within different educational contexts.
This review focuses on research from various parts of the world, providing a comparative perspective
that includes global debates, continental (particularly African) approaches, and local insights from South
African schools. By examining these contexts, the review aims to uncover common patterns and
differences in how indiscipline is understood and addressed. The scope is limited to educational settings,
with particular attention to schools, and excludes other social institutions where discipline might be
relevant.
The key research questions are:
1. What are the primary global perspectives on the causes and consequences of indiscipline in
schools?
2. How do African and local (South African) approaches compare to global perspectives on school
