KwaZulu-Natal Premier Nomusa Dube-Ncube says they have approached the police to increase visibility in schools after a Durban Grade 12 pupil was killed on school grounds.
Matric pupil Thabani Vilakazi was stabbed, allegedly by a Grade 10 learner at Mandlenkosi Secondary School on Tuesday.
A case of murder is being investigated by Ntuzuma police.
Dube-Ncube visited the school on Thursday.

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."
