Disabled people are treated worse than mongrels in SA. It really is heart breaking.
A plan may be to have the stream system for schooling so that able bodied children get to see that disabled children are not some kind of aberration. Report Abuse

Everytime when something very important needs to be accomplished money is mentioned to be an impediment. As the Goverment, when are we going stop attaching monetary value to something so important like taking care of our disabled learners? This is really a banana republic. I now agree. Report Abuse

Bullshit ! How were they paid this R4.6m . At what stage is this school.How were the drawings approved by the Chief Engineer if there was no provision for ramps and disabled toilets. I smell a dead rat here.
On one of the projects that I am doing , the Quantity Surveyor certified 70% payment of contract value to the contractor when the construction was only at 30% !!! I Report Abuse

Here we go again. So the govt thinks disabled people are non-contributors to society? We need to look at the whole SA society in general. Our country is discriminatory towards disabled people, with some people thinking that its God's Curse if you are born invalidated. Are we ever going to get Oscar Pistoriuses if we continue with this stone-age mentality? Given the chance, disabled people are passionate about their societal responsibilities than the cavalier attitudes of us 'able-bodied'. I blame the govt, it seems they (govt) are ethnically cleansing disabled people from society. They will still be here in the next millenium, whether we like it or not, so get on with it!!
