The upcoming episode of Carte Blanche on February 23rd will delve into a deeply troubling issue—sexual predators targeting children in South African schools.

A chilling reality that many children endure in silence, driven by fear and the potential for retaliation.

The show will highlight how these children are often too scared to speak out about the abuse they suffer.

National Sex Offenders Register Under Scrutiny

Despite the existence of a National Sex Offenders Register in South Africa, there are growing concerns about its effectiveness.

The register, which is meant to prevent sexual offenders from entering the classroom, is being questioned for its apparent failure to stop predators from posing as educators.

The investigation reveals that the true number of abusers who are able to gain access to schools remains unclear.

This raises serious concerns about the vetting process designed to protect students.

Are Stronger Safeguards Needed?

As Carte Blanche continues its investigation, critical questions are being raised about what went wrong in the national vetting system.

With mounting evidence suggesting that sexual predators are slipping through the cracks, the episode will explore whether stronger measures are necessary to better protect children and prevent abuse from happening in the first place.

The Long-Standing Credibility of Carte Blanche

Carte Blanche, a respected South African investigative journalism television series, has been airing on M-Net every Sunday evening since 1988.

Over its 34 years on air, the show has built a strong reputation for its in-depth coverage of issues like corruption, consumer protection, and current events, earning the trust of viewers nationwide.
