Racial integration in formerly white schools : a pilot study of educators' perceptions and experiences

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The present research investigates some of the experiences historically whites only schools in a selected region of the Western Cape have undergone during the process of racial integration. An underlying objective was to investigate reported behaviour problems and other related problems in the school. This research was a qualitative pilot study of selected historically white state and private schools in Circuit 1 of the Wynberg School Area in Cape Town. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with school principals of the schools which met the criteria for inclusion in the study (N=9). The interview schedule consisted of both open-ended and closed-ended questions.
