Education is the key to the future of Afrikaners. Therefore, preserving excellent Afrikaans educational institutions – from preschool to tertiary level – by protecting all factors that make mother-tongue and high-quality education possible is a priority. This includes a wide spectrum of services to schools, which are described in more detail in the AfriForum Onderwysgids.

Being searched – especially when you know you have done nothing wrong – remains a bitter pill to swallow. However, there is one situation that trumps this: strangers searching your children at a place you have always considered safe – school!

AfriForum’s anti-bullying campaign team have been fighting and building since 2017. We fight by putting an end to bullying in schools. 265 schools, 209 327 learners, 7 356 teachers and 2 000 parents across the country have already been addressed about bullying and its impact. We build by creating hope and equipping both schools and communities with the necessary knowledge and skills to end bullying. Safe schools make for safe communities – not only now but also in the future.
AfriForum’s anti-bullying campaign is eight years old this year and we would like to thank every school, learner, teacher and parent who acts as an ambassador in their respective communities to oppose bullying.
Become part of the solution, leave footprints and create hope with AfriForum by taking proactive action. Together we can ensure free, safe and prosperous schools and communities. Please send an email to onderwys@afriforum.co.za if your school would like to get involved.
a. AfriForum se teenboeliegids
Die AfriForum Teenboeliegids help kinders/leerders om die definisie en impak van boeliery/ afknouery te verstaan deur dit te vergelyk met ’n lelike, omgekrapte boeliereus. Hierdie metafoor sal kinders help om bewus te raak van die rol wat hulle in afknouery speel – of hulle nou tipiese teikens, die boelie self of die omstanders is, of selfs in al drie kategorieë val. Die rol van die omstanders kan veral as belangrik geag word. Hierdie gids is bedoel om kinders te help besef wat die krag van die omstanders is – om ’n bondgenoot te word vir ander en om vir hulleself en vir ander op te staan. Die gids help hulle besef dat hulle beter empatie kan aanleer, hoe om meer betrokke te raak via goeie en vriendelike dade, en hoe hulle kan opstaan teen afknouery. Dit is belangrik om met hierdie bewusmaking reeds by kinders te begin juis omdat hulle as agente van verandering kan optree om verder in die samelewing ’n verskil te gaan maak.
As ’n volwassene kan jy die inhoud van die gids met jou kind deel deur die gids met hulle te bespreek. Mag ons kinders leer om hulle eie identiteit te koester en om ander mense met respek te hanteer. Ons kinders is die leiers van môre, hulle is ons land se toekoms. Jy as ouer of onderwyser maak ’n reuse-impak in ons kinders se lewens: Leer hulle om hul liggies helder te laat skyn in die donker wêreld daar buite sodat hulle ’n verskil in ander kinders se lewens kan maak. Leer kinders om hulle maats op te bou in plaas van af te breek. Ons elkeen is uniek en uitgekies!
b. AfriForum se kuberboeliegids
Tegnologie ontwikkel daagliks. Dieselfde kan gesê word van kinders se vermoë om te boelie. Boeliery wat eens net op die skoolterrein of op die skoolbus plaasgevind het, het nou uitgekring na boeliery deur tegnologie en sosiale media. Dit staan bekend as kuberboeliery. Kinders se behoefte om met hul maats te kommunikeer is steeds dieselfde, maar die maniere hoe hulle kies om met mekaar te kommunikeer het geweldig verander. Daar is soveel voordele wat die internet en sosiale media vir ons inhou, maar daar is ongelukkig ook net soveel nadele en gevare – veral as dit kom by ons kinders en hul veiligheid.
Die doel van hierdie gids is om ouers, onderwysers en leerders met die nodige kennis en vaardighede te bemagtig om kuberboeliery hok te slaan, asook om hulle meer bewus te maak van die gevare van tegnologie, sosiale media, seksskrywery (“sexting”) en kinderpornografie. Dié gids is in samewerking met Solidariteit Helpende Hand, die SAPD se reeks- en elektroniese misdaadeenheid (SECI), die Universiteit van Johannesburg (UJ) en die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika (Unisa) saamgestel.
