QUESTION 1:
MINUTES OF A MEETING BACKGROUND Fundakahle Combined
School is experiencing a serious problem of late coming amongst
learners. This impacts on learner discipline and the time allocated for
teaching and learning. The matric pass rate has declined remarkably in
recent years. As a result, the parents have approached the School
Governing Body (SGB) to take measures to curb late coming. The
School Management Team (SMT) held a meeting with the School
Governing Body to discuss the issue of late coming.

Question 1
The meeting commenced with Mr Nkosi, the Chair, acknowledging the various
challenges faced by the school, particularly the issue of late coming. Mr Tembe, as a
member of the Disciplinary Committee, was assigned to lead the discussion on
agenda item 3.2: Strategies for combating late coming.
Mr Tembe highlighted the seriousness of the issue, emphasizing its potential impact
on the school's final results. The Disciplinary Committee had previously attempted to
address late coming by closing the gate at 7:30 am, but this approach did not yield
positive results, as more learners continued to arrive late.
Mr Thango expressed his belief that the students were essentially punishing
themselves by arriving late and suggested allowing them to face the consequences.
However, Mr Tembe cautioned against such an approach, highlighting the potential
negative implications for the school's pass percentage and the likelihood of external
intervention and pressure on the teachers.
Mr Nkosi supported Mr Tembe's viewpoint, emphasizing the importance of
maximizing teaching time for all learners and maintaining the school's reputation by
consistently producing 100% results. He proposed the implementation of extended
afternoon study as a deterrent to encourage learners to be more responsible.
Ms Peace intervened, redirecting the discussion back to the issue of late coming and
suggesting alternative solutions. She agreed with Mr Nkosi's suggestion of keeping
students after school rather than locking them out. Additionally, she proposed
sending Mr Tembe and Mr Hlabangane to negotiate with the company responsible
for scholar transport to arrange for the learners to be picked up thirty minutes earlier
in the morning.
Mr Hlabangane volunteered to engage with the bus company and suggested
incorporating physical work on Fridays as a rule for latecomers, with the
responsibility of cleaning the school yard. He believed this approach would
discourage tardiness among the youth who generally dislike hard work.
