About this publication
Case Law Handbook on Education unlocks twenty-five key cases that have helped shaped education in South Africa today. The editor of this accessible yet authoritative work has chosen these cases to cover the widest possible range of education matters. The publication also includes unreported cases in which sound principles have been established.
Each case in this publication is discussed in clear terms along with an outline of the practical implications of the finding made. Readers will find this work to be an indispensable guide to a better understanding of the complex legal concepts and principles that impact education in South Africa, and it is our hope that this will contribute to the body of knowledge and to quality education for all.
