The North West Province is experiencing significant challenges and forms of violence disrupting learning, including the burning of schools and protest actions. These disruptions not only jeopardise the safety and well-being of students, educators, and community members, but also undermine the fundamental right to education and perpetuate cycles of instability and inequality within communities.

The Commission will convene a series of stakeholder engagements aimed at addressing critical issues in schools. These engagements are scheduled as follows:

• Date:           Monday, 9 September 2024
