Angry pupils torch school

[Elite Override]

Durban - Angry pupils have torched their school in Mariannhill, near Pinetown, because of a lack of teaching materials, Isolezwe newspaper reported on Wednesday.

ISizinda Secondary School pupils burnt down three classrooms on Tuesday after complaining that the principal was failing to provide them with necessary school material, such as furniture.

The paper reported that pupils boycotted classes two weeks ago because of a similar complaint.

It was believed the pupils set refuse bins alight and threw them inside the classrooms.

I lived in Pinetown! Hey at least Africa taught these kids something...lack of resources...lets burn down the school and not think about what the repercussions will be

I guess it's like having R10, and then burning it because you'd rather want a R20?

There is no repercussions. That is the biggest issue.

The awkward moment when you realise you don't have any classrooms either

That is when you start to beat up the teachers. It is after all their fault.

Or cutting your hand off because you have a broken nail. This is how things get solved the African way!

I completely understand this.

Their parents vote for the ANC. The ANC don't deliver on their promises. They strike and cause chaos by burning stuff etc.

Next election:
ANC makes the same promises. The ANC don't deliver on their promises. They strike again and start burning stuff etc.

If your parents don't take responsibility for their own lives, and just blame everyone else, why would the kids do any different?

 

[Praeses]

Well they solved their own problem. Can't complain about there being a lack of anything at the school if there is no school!

 

[KhoisanX]

Is it wrong to laugh when you read stuff like this?
Can children like these actually be taught anyway?

 

[Schavuit]

Fine. Don't rebuild it, and bar those pupils from following any education at all during their lives. It is what they want. Let them live in the gutter.
