I am currently busy with a PhD-degree at the North-West University, Vaal Triangle Faculty. My interest lies with finding out what the perceptions of educators, parents/caregivers and the learners in their care are on the status of educators who teach at public primary and secondary schools in the D7 district. The relevance of my research is dependent on involving (1) learners in Grades 7 and 10, (2) their parents/caregivers and (3) the educators at the selected primary and secondary schools. Permission to conduct my research has been obtained from the Gauteng Education Department.

I am aware of the fundamental rights of both learners and educators and am focused on taking their rights to safety/security and dignity into special consideration.

This letter is a polite request, asking for your assistance in being allowed to administer (1) a questionnaire to Grade 7/Grade 10 learners, (2) a questionnaire to their parents/caregivers and (3) a questionnaire to the educators at your school. Obviously I would contact you to confirm specific dates and times that would suit the school best.

As researcher, I would like to assure you of the fact that your school’s participation will remain anonymous. The data will be only be handled by my promoter, Prof. Elda de Waal, my statistical consultant, Ms Aldine Oosthuyzen, and me.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration of this important matter.

I am currently busy with a PhD-degree at the North-West University, Vaal Triangle Faculty. My interest lies with finding out what the perceptions of educators, learners and their parents/caregivers are on the status of their educators. The relevance of my research is dependent on involving learners in Grade 7 and 10. I am especially aware of the fundamental rights of children younger than 18 years and am focused on taking their rights to safety/security and dignity into special consideration.

My research is aimed at determining the viewpoints of the selected learners at public primary and secondary schools in the D7 district. The national Department of Education is concerned about how negatively South African society seems to regard public school educators and my thesis is intent on adding scientific research in order to address this education dilemma. Mutual trust and respect between educators and learners are impossible if educators’ status is not valued highly.

This letter is a polite request: Would you please give your permission for your Grade 7 and/or Grade 10 learner or learners, ...(Name/s of learner/s) to complete the questionnaire that I have developed?

For your attention, the following aspects will be regarded as of the utmost importance:

 Learners will not have to disclose their names or other personal information.  Learners will be able to withdraw from the research at any time.

 Learners will be invited to take part in the research as volunteers.

Beste Ouer/Versorger

Ek is tans besig met my PhD graad aan die Noordwes-Universiteit, Vaaldriehoekkampus. My navorsing is gerig op die vasstelling van die standpunte van opvoeders, ouers/versorgers en Graad 7 en 10 leerder by openbare primêre en sekondêre skole in die D7 distrik aangaande die status van opvoeders. Die relevansie van my navorsing is afhanklik van die betrokkenheid van leerders in Graad 7 en 10. Ek is in die besonder bewus van die fundamentele regte van kinders jonger as 18 jaar en fokus daarom op hulle regte op veiligheid/sekuriteit en waardigheid.

Die nasionale Departement van Basiese Onderwys is bekommerd oor wat leerders en hulle ouers/versorgers dink van Suid-Afrikaanse openbare skole se opvoeders en my tesis is van voorneme om ’n wetenskaplike navorsingsbydra te lewer, met die oog daarop om die opvoedkundige dilemma aan te spreek. Wedersydse vertroue en respek tussen opvoeders en leerders is onmoontlik indien die opvoeder se status nie hoog aangeskrewe is nie.

Hierdie brief is ’n vriendelike versoek: Sal u asseblief u toestemming gee vir u Graad 7 en/of Graad 10 leerder of leerders, ... (Naam/Name van leerder/s) om die vraelys wat ek ontwikkel het te voltooi.

Vir u aandag, sal die volgende aspekte van absolute belang beskou word:

 Leerders sal nie hul naam op die navorsings vraelys bekend hoef te maak nie.  Leerders kan ten enige tyd aan die navorsing onttrek.

 Leerders word genooi om aan die navorsing deel te neem as vrywilligers.  Leerders se fundamentele regte sal deur die hele proses beskerm word.
