Strengthening school safety

Among the key priorities in the budget is school safety, with R4m allocated to tackle the growing incidents of crime and violence in schools.

The MEC cited recent break-ins at Kuschke Agricultural School and Taxila Secondary School, as well as similar incidents in Vhembe and Seshego, as examples of the urgent need for intervention.

"Social ills such as bullying, drug abuse, gangsterism, rape, and suicide are on the rise," she said.
