A Steenberg principal has told of an attack
by a pupil on a Grade 1 teacher, who then had to be booked off for stress.
It was reported that the incident at Floreat Primary School
He said most of the pupils of the school
were well-behaved and despite the attacks on teachers being seen as isolated
incidents, it was a cause for concern.
Western Cape Education Department
Spokesperson Paddy Attwell said the school had experienced problems of the kind
in the past.
Attwell also said the District office at
the time implemented a programme called the Positive Behaviour Programme aimed
at training teachers in dealing with conduct of this nature.
“The programme was very successful and was used
as an example of best practice; it does appear that the problem might have
resurfaced again, and the District Office continue to assist the school as it
deals with this problem” Attwell added.
