Violent tendencies which the youth are accustomed to in our societies are being displayed even in schools. An incident which is said to have happened in the Gauteng Province on the 21st of January 2021, a teacher was shot dead by one learner who is said to have failed his matric examinations.
A female Geography teacher by the name of Ngendane was shot in front of other learners who had come to collect their results at Phomolong Secondary School in Tembisa.
The two are said to have had a frosty relationship while the learner was still studying at the school. Reports from those who were at the scene claim that she was allegedly shot at least five imes by the student who had failed grade 12 at the gate of the school.
This incident sent shockwaves to many as they were made aware that our kids are now taking issues to the next level.
A big question is where this learner got the gun from. It is known that in the townships, illegal firearms are easily accessible and this makes carrying out shootings easy. The student could have possibly engaged thugs their neighborhood who made the firearm available.
Pictures which were circulating online showed a crowd gathered at the gate as the community was still in disbelief. The story is still sketchy but learner is in police custody and investigations are being carried out.
There are reports that the teacher was not in good books with the learner and the learner was of the belief that the teacher was full of hate. The student was of the belief that this teacher contributed to the pathetic results they collected.
Teachers are being advised to change their attitudes towards learners as some of the learners might still be too naive to handle such. It is known that there are some educators who tend to mock or belittle learners who fail to grasp information in quickly. Such attitudes should be dropped and parents should make it a habit to check their children if all is well with them in school. Learners should also complain to the Students Representatives Council if there is any teacher who will be making such nonsensical claims on them.
The actions of this learner will have so many negative ripple families on their live, family members as well as the loved ones of the deceased teacher.
The student could have passed and defied odds if they had studied hard enough. Kids nowadays seem to know nothing about taking responsibility and they want to blame others for setbacks in their lives
