- The National Association of School Governing Bodies says over 16 000 teachers with criminal records are still teaching. This was brought to the attention of the South African Council for Educators. Sadtu spokesperson Nombuso Cembi, NASGB secretary-general Matakanye Matakanye, and Basic Education Department's Enoch Rabotapi discuss the issue.
Tune into Newzroom Afrika DStv channel 405 for more.
In Parliament there is plenty
Look at the DA, Mk, ANC and EFF etc
😂😅
😂😂😂
And they running out country, the highest responsibility.
And charity must begin at home. We got lot of Ministers with criminal records in parliament. South African parliament is full of criminals.
Why am I not shocked by this😂
Hai 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
What about comrades and politicians. Are they clean ?
We need national shut down to resolved this.
There are more criminals then taxpayers
Can’t say I’m surprised! This is South Africa under the ANC government after all.
The party you and your gogo voted for
@ And your mother right?
@@Professor_Stark wake up kfr
This is unacceptable!!!
Why are these predators still there:
Sadtu protection ring
SADTU personify criminality, stealing dignity and future from the younger generation.
criminal record means you were a convicted criminal, and criminals are not supposed to be around children and schools for that matter
You can't win that in court. The law says if you have been convicted and served your sentence you are rehabilitated into the society. That why x convicts even become lawyers, such as attorneys, advocates, magistrates and judges
Sign of things to come under the Bela bill
But shouldn't we check what you were arrested for?
@@KNathi1No. No contact with children, period.
@@siZobonaMakeza it doesn't work like that. Imagine you were arrested for drink and drive and upon your release you are told you are a criminal who has a record therefore it's either your children are taken away or you don't go near them. Would that be justice to you when you are now sentenced again for the same crime, now for life
what about in parliament?
These people are making excuses and it's making them look stupid.
16k convicts in your employ and you have no clue, that's beyond ignorant and disgusting.
How does this even happen??? You can’t even teach abroad with a criminal record, why is it permissible in SA? Children deserve so much better 💔💔
I support your comments mr matakanye
So If some went to jail and paid for their wrong doing, why are they still on the list? This is why some brothers struggle with clearing this after serving the time. Useless government
There are many other jobs that do not involve contact with our children that they can work as ex convicts. Not with children.
Disgusting! Teaching them to be criminals?
I note the need for Teachers to be vetted. Howefver, can the same be extended to the leaders of schools in the guise of the SGB. Criminals should also be excluded from such leadership roles. The SGB Board should encourage such declarations as important and the SASA Act should legislate it, so as to curb it from all sides.
All im hearing is excuses man !!! Unacceptable behaviour from the people in charge !!!!
😂😂😂😂ai we live in a banana Republic......let us hire criminals....then find out after that they are criminals really? This DG. From the Dept is just playing a blame game and making vetting complicated he doesn't want to take accountability. Obviously criminals will play a delay game. 🙄 this state is a crime on its own.
I know I shouldn't be surprised because I've heard of male teacher's talking very sexually to their students. Recently, a principal was accused of raping his stepdaughter.
He used to teach at the highschool some of my cousins went to, and they were talking quite casually about how this man spoke to them. And apparently he was also having sex with some of the students there and talked about it in his class.
Because I never heard these kinds of stories before, I didn't think that it was a big deal. I quit school in 5th grade because of the humiliating way's that boys were punished in school from 5th grade upwards.
My family told me to just go back to school, and that's just the way things are.
I couldn't believe the stories my cousins told. And these things have been going on for years but I've never heard parents in my area talk about these things. Just what the fuck is going on in our schools.
Parents need to get more involved in their childrens education. This shit cannot continue. You can't put your kids in the care of people you know nothing about. How the hell are criminals allowed to teach in fucking schools? In actual schools.
Generally based on some comments here, it is clear why this country is headed in the direction it is headed. Too many of us citizens have an unreasonably high tolleramce for criminality, we seem to have excuses for when it is ok and reasons for why we should condone it, it’s sad because this is why we have criminals in government leadership, and we watch them steal and destroy this nation and go to sleep at night without a care in the world. It’s scary to think that that these are the people that make decision like who to vote for to build a future for our children 😢
Failure on the government department to not look into someones background !!! This is the acceptable level of work south africa had become used to under ANC.
Wake up rsa. Anc has failed every aspect of daily lives.
Agree 200,%
He hasn’t got basic education, that attitude is exactly why majority are in this position of criminality and victim playing. Arrogance has no bounds but dumb, overtakes
Worse in Saps
True I know one guy who shot his wife in broad daylight and he is still a police
Criminal Record can be from a simple drink and driving which many South Africans have and its not that bad like a Fraudster or a murderer. It needs to starts there, some of these should be exempted. And you will find these happened after employment, when vetted they were clean, a lot of companies if they can vet their staff today, a lot of people will loose their jobs to things like drink and driving charges, simple thing.
Drinking and driving is just as serious buddy, innocent lives are lost daily due to this. Criminality is criminality
Drinking & driving is definitely NOT a simple thing (ask the families of many people who have been killed by drivers who do this), it's illegal, irresponsible & deliberate.
@@lindawarren6721 some people lack critical thinking. Drinking and driving is serious
Trying to excuse incompetence!!! And they knew - but ignored it. Excuses excuses excuses - the ANC way.
@@Ash_Hole-f7p If it's that serious, then why do sentences differ?
If you have critical thinking skills, as you claim others lack, would you say a professional Dr who refused to pay a traffic ticket must loose his job because of this? or be treated the same as a murderer and a rapist
What type of crime, though? I thought criminals like sex offenders/predators, etc, were not allowed to teach. Some of these criminals have never been caught and are very much involved in your children's lives 👎👎👎 Protect your kids!
How can parents put their children in the care of criminals. Each province must deal with this in its own. They pay for a posts. Start by the headmaster. They focus on minor stuff like.......
I am an ex-convict and I'm a good teacher although I don't teach, but I am exceptionally good teacher. Because I rehabitated
When I read rehabitated I stopped believing a word you typed. Good teacher 😂
Birds of a feather, new criminals want the positions, thats the only reason these ones have been brought to light.
Your quota system makes sure of it bru
Now some blaim foreigners. Why.
Wena ja ke lekula... Osa kwa monate wa free achar ware gafela...tsek
If itranslate this to English is saying "I'm sorry ....you don't like the test of free achar
Most A.n .c have criminal record
But Mr Matakanye is talking absolute rubbish, there are no laws in the country prohibiting the appointment of people with criminal records from being appointed in any government department including the department of basic education.
But this contradicts the DoCS because they say an offender who's has served his/her time is rehabilitated
Exactly, so they're integrating into society, right?
What kind of crime?
I believe it is not teachers only. Everywhere nje if they search I believe we’ll be shocked.
so if you did fraud, you can teach? Nombuso are you serious....hahahahaha which crime is allowed, tell us? hahaha this is a joke!
Dumb explanations… confusing the law so as to confuse the masses - we’ve now adopted overseas woke tactics and it’s very upsetting to watch.
It probably depends on the province you live in and how familiar institutions are with what needs to happen
400 000 teachers is quite few, the DBE needs to ramp that up to at least a million
On what logical basis do you arrive at a million?
Yesgu yaza me yhaku 😢😂😂😂😂
😂 What???
Yho
No Wonder these kids are getting 30% on their matric reselts
🤔
Most are alcohol related crimes. Like driving under the influence
Why not talk to the Domkop Minister of Education ????
SA is a black state, what do you expect?
Typical 4 the type.
Disgrace
I think foreigners made those teachers to become criminals. Ndi ara kobo kobo!
Lol😂
Foreigner are also on the list
🤣
