A selection of these interviews are included on the DVD. Also offers practical steps on how to strengthen the process of transforming a school.

"'A School Where I Belong' is a critical and timely intervention that should have a significant impact on the transformation of South African schools - not to just change or adapt, but to fundamentally embrace young people's humanity and to view diversity as a gift. This is a treasure." Max du Preez, journalist and author of "A Rumour of Spring"
