There is a need to explore how South African correctional schools are run and how teachers enhance the wellness dimensions of juvenile offenders so that upon release they are smoothly reintegrated into society. The attainment of wellness dimensions in an individual is crucial as they enable him
or her to recognise the importance of interdependence, working together, and creating harmony in
his or her society (Schaffer, 2000). As an academic involved in teacher training programmes, I was
interested in seeing how juvenile offender learners’ academic wellness is. Hence, the purpose of
this study was to explore the academic wellness of juvenile offender learners in a correctional
school in order to find ways in which learners’ academic wellness can further be supported and
enhanced.
