, Question 1
1.1 How should classroom managers manage sexual misconduct? Give examples of sexual
misconduct. (20)
Classroom managers should be aware that, in the majority of circumstances, sexual misbehaviour is not
only illegal but also unethical according to the South African Council for Educators Act's SACE Code of
Professional Ethics (RSA 2000c). The Constitution, common law, and legislation are only a few of the
sources used to create education law, which governs sexual misbehaviour.
Sexual misconduct includes the following: Verbal abuse, nudity, undressing/exposing, covertly watching
a nude child, kissing in an intimate way, fondling or improper touching, interfering with a child in a
sexual manner, sexual intercourse with a child, child pornography
(UNISA, 2021, p. 61)
According to the code of professional ethics prescribed by SACE, a teacher must:
- Uphold students' dignity
- Abstain from any form of degrading behaviour (such as humiliation or abuse)
- Refrain from making inappropriate physical contact with students
- Refrain from engaging in any type of sexual activity with students while they are in school
(Wydeman & Mokoena, 2022, p. 122)
The purpose and duty of educators is to develop the whole child. Our educational goals' exclusion of
sexual consent and agency has devastating, long-lasting repercussions.
By hiring sex education specialists, educators can close the knowledge gap surrounding the affirmative
consent paradigm. Due to a lack of tools and knowledge about how to properly discuss these extremely
complicated issues with children, tweens, and teens, many educators are hesitant to bring up the subject
of sexuality and consent in the classroom.
It is too restrictive to bring about the change in cultural norms required to address the structural
injustices that contribute to sexual misconduct and abuse to have these discussions in health classes
where sex and relationships are already covered.
