Question 1 Read scenario A and answer the questions that follow:
INC3701/103/2024 7 Scenario A. Tommy is 10 years old. He attends a school
8 km from home. He lives in a two-room house that he shares with his mother,
his 85-year-old sick grandfather and eight other children. His mother is blind
and cannot find a job. Because no one in the house earns an income Tommy
is often hungry. He and the other older children in the household take turns to
stay home from school and care for the grandfather. His schoolwork suffers
because he is not able to attend school every day. He must also fetch water
from a river that is 1km from home every morning before school and is often
late for school. When he is at school, he often finds it difficult to concentrate
because he is usually hungry and he worries about his grandfather a lot. He is
also sad because his father left home to look for work and never returned.
When he gets home after a long day at school, he works in the neighbours’
garden and then sells the vegetables to earn some money to buy food for the
family. The teacher does not know why Tommy comes to school late and why
he is absent so often. She shouts at him for not doing his homework and for
his poor performance at school. Tommy gets nervous when the teacher
shouts at him, so he sits at the back of the class so that she won’t notice him.
But Tommy is partially sighted and can’t see the board from the back of the
class. No one knows about Tommy’s eyesight as his eyes have never been
tested. His academic performance gets worse and worse. 1.1 Discuss 5
challenges that Tommy encountered in accessing quality education that
prevent him from achieving his potential. Provide specific reasons mentioned
in the passage to support your answer. [4x5=20] INC3701/103/2024 8 1.2
Explain the impact of Tommy's family situation on his academic performance.
How does his responsibility for household tasks and caring for his grandfather
affect his ability to focus on schoolwork? [4] 1.3 Highlight three (3) potential
solutions or support mechanisms that could improve Tommy's academic
situation. What actions could the school, teacher, or community take to
address Tommy's challenges and create a more conducive learning
environment for him? [6] [Sub-total=30]
1.1 Challenges Tommy Encountered in Accessing Quality Education
1. Inconsistent School Attendance:
, o Reason: Tommy takes turns with the other older children to stay
home and care for his sick grandfather. This irregular attendance
disrupts his learning process and continuity in education.
2. Long and Exhausting Daily Routine:
o Reason: Every morning, Tommy fetches water from a river 1 km
away before going to school. This task, combined with the 8 km
distance he has to travel to get to school, leaves him exhausted and
often late, affecting his ability to engage fully in class activities.
3. Hunger and Malnutrition:
o Reason: Due to the lack of income in the household, Tommy is often
hungry. Hunger impacts his concentration and energy levels, making
it difficult for him to focus on his studies while at school.
4. Unaddressed Health Issues:
o Reason: Tommy is partially sighted, but no one is aware of this
because his eyes have never been tested. Sitting at the back of the
class exacerbates this issue as he cannot see the board, further
hindering his ability to learn and participate in class.
5. Emotional and Psychological Stress:
o Reason: Tommy is burdened by worries about his grandfather and the
overall financial strain on his family. Additionally, the emotional
impact of his father's disappearance adds to his stress, contributing to
his poor academic performance and overall well-being.
1.2 Impact of Tommy's Family Situation on His Academic Performance
Tommy's family situation greatly impacts his academic performance due to the
following reasons:
Responsibility for Household Tasks: His responsibility to care for his
grandfather and fetch water every morning means that he often arrives late
to school and is too tired to concentrate fully. These tasks also cut into the
time he could spend on homework and study.
Financial Strain: The need to work in neighbors’ gardens and sell
vegetables to buy food for his family further reduces the time and energy he
has for school-related activities.
Emotional Burden: The stress of his family’s financial situation and his
father’s absence preoccupy his thoughts, making it difficult for him to focus
on his schoolwork.
