Image
What Are the Accessibility Challenges to Education in Developing Countries? Accessibility to education in developing countries is a major challenge. Many children in these countries lack access to basic educational resources, such as textbooks, computers, and internet access. Additionally, the lack of infrastructure and resources to build and maintain educational institutions can limit access to education. Furthermore, poverty, gender inequality, and geographic barriers can all contribute to the difficulty of accessing education in developing countries. Poor health and nutrition can also be a barrier to education, as children may be too ill to attend school. Finally, political instability and violence can also prevent children from attending school or receiving an education. All of these factors can contribute to the accessibility challenges to education in developing countries. Technology is revolutionizing the way higher education is being delivered in Africa.

The video shows the two girls arguing before the boy approaches them.  He hands something to the girl standing, and when she moves closer to him, the argument gets heated. The boy then pushes her with both hands, causing her to fall back onto the pavilion.  She retaliates by pushing him back, at which moment he grabs her by the hair and slaps her three times. A fight then ensues between the two which progresses onto the field, before the video ends. Krugersdorp police detectives are currently investigating a case of common assault, but no arrests have been made yet. The police have strongly condemned any kind of gender-based violence, bullying, fighting, substance abuse, and stealing that may occur in schools, as these places should be safe for learners.  When asked for a statement, the school's principal, Anton Strauss,
