South Africa reported 548 cases of bullying in schools since January, prompting the Minister of Basic Education to unveil new initiatives aimed at combating this growing issue. Twenty-nine cases were reported in KwaZulu-Natal, 23 in Gauteng and 305 in Limpopo. These shocking statistics were released last week by the Minister of Basic Education, Siviwe Gwarube, in a parliamentary response to Lorato Florence Tito-Duba, a member of the National Assembly for the Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF). Education experts said bullying was an age-old problem and warned it was “becoming more complex in the age of technology”. Dr Mbuyiseni Ndlozi spoke to Sifiso Ngobese, director for school safety from DBE and, Dr Andrea Juan, chief researcher at the Human Sciences Research Council.
