Maile, Simeon; Olowoyo, Mary Motolani – Pedagogical Research, 2017
Late coming to school has become a major problem in many schools, particularly township schools with serious consequences. Current research has demonstrated that many schools in South Africa are performing badly due to inefficient use of the teaching and learning time. In this article, we argue that while major administrative interventions are…
