She says it's clear they still need to work on making pupils understand the importance of life and how to resolve issues without violence.
"We know that we are going to be getting additional police in KwaZulu-Natal during this festive season and throughout, you would see that when we unveil the festive season plan, but we have also requested that there is high visibility police in the school, but also in other schools to ensure that nothing like this ever happens again."
