From the recent Pretoria Boys High controversy to the Primrose Primary shooting and the infamous Krugersdorp sword attack, South Africa has repeatedly been forced to confront the reality of violence in schools.

In this episode of Profiler Africa, Paul Llewellyn is joined by Dr Gérard Labuschagne and former SAPS Investigative Psychology specialist Kirsten Clark to examine the warning signs that often emerge before violence occurs, the psychology behind threats and targeted attacks, and why schools frequently miss opportunities to intervene before tragedy strikes.

The discussion explores threat assessment, leakage, grievance, behavioural warning signs, and the critical difference between punishment and prevention.
