dc.description.abstractIn the study focus group discussions and interviews, learners/students experienced toilets as the most dangerous areas at school. In particular, bullying in the school toilets was characterised by violence, including physical and sexual assaults, as well as criminal activity and threats of violence. These spaces are at a distance from the school, and hidden from the teachers’ view and supervision. This article reports on a qualitative study that explored bullying in a township secondary school in South Africa and the reasons for its persistence in this particular school toilet spaces.en
