Please read the below passage and respond the questions based on it.
Xiphico Secondary School is situated in a high-crime area. The grade 12 results of the school are very
low, and hence, the school is classified as dysfunctional. In nearly every classroom, there are a handful
of learners who simply refuse to do the work. They’ll listen to the assignment and maybe even nod
their heads, but when the rubber hits the road, they don’t hand anything in—at best, they submit a
couple of sentences instead of the essay you asked for. In most instances, teachers become so
defensive that the blame is laid squarely on the learners. They often say that the learners are unruly,
disrespectful, and do not care about their future. Instead of playing the blame game, teachers must
thoroughly investigate the root cause of these learners’ refusal to do their work. Understanding the
reasons and factors that contribute to learners’ refusal to do their work can assist the teachers in
Xiphico Secondary School in enhancing the performance of their learners in grade 12 examinations.
