Race and Inclusion in South African Education
From teachers to educators
Critical Anti-racism and Problems in Self-articulated Forms of Identities [1]
This article reflects on particular pedagogical encounters that the author had between 1996 and 1998. It draws on experiences with undergraduate education students, who were taught the same course on racism and sexism in South African education in 1996 and 1997, and a workshop, on similar issues, that the author ran for some members of the South African Correctional Services in February 1998. An analysis of the self-articulated forms of identity …
School effectiveness in South Africa
This paper draws on research conducted with schools located within the Johannesburg area of the Gauteng province in South Africa. The findings of two research projects are analyzed in relation to discourses of school effectiveness. The first project was the School Effectiveness in South Africa project (SESA) initiated by Advancing Basic Education and Literacy and some members of the Education Department of the University of the Witwatersrand in 1…

Given the white supremacist and exclu‐sivist nature of apertheid, current transformation processes are explicitly aimed at redressing the imbalances and inequities caused by apartheid iself. The new Constit…
Working With and Through Difference in Antiracist Pedagogies
This paper argues that antiracism is confronted by particular contemporary challenges. The predominance of the notion of ‘difference’ illuminates starkly what some of these challenges are. I argue that, from the standpoint of antiracism, the notion of ‘difference’ that challenges powerfully theoretical assumptions of the fixed nature of Being, the projection of universalised singular versions of the Truth, and, essentialised understandings of peo…
From ‘Race’ to Ethnicity
Academic Support and Transforming Knowledge Systems
This paper deconstructs a particular pedagogical experience the author had with a black, male South African student in the context of an academic support programme (ASP) at a predominantly white, English‐speaking university in Johannesburg, South Africa. The first part of the paper provides a social analysis of ASPs in order to explain why it is that the author and Hani, the student, got to find themselves in the situations they did and experienc…
