  12. KHAYELITSHA PRIMARY SCHOOLS RECCOMMENDATIONS • In schools that are not meeting the learners/ toilet norm, toilets that are not in working order must be repaired (including urinals) • Where the ratio of learners per toilet is twice the norm, new toilets need to be introduced. • The 6 schools where the shortage of toilet’s situation is extreme should not be allowed to re-open until the problem is resolved • Sanibinsneed to be introduced as part of the bathrooms package of amenities with the aim of reducing toilet blockages • It is mandatory that toilet paper be provided • The problem of faulty washing basins must be addressed • Soap for hand washing is an essential hygiene requirement that is obligatory for all schools to provide.
