Answer :
(a) Oom Dawie's occupation was a teacher.
(b) In my own words, Oom Dawie, as a teacher, may not be directly to blame for the Bantu education taught at black schools. The implementation of Bantu education was a result of apartheid policies imposed by the government at the time, which aimed to segregate and control the education of black South Africans. While Oom Dawie may have been a teacher within the system, the responsibility for the discriminatory and inferior education provided under Bantu education lies with the government and the apartheid system as a whole. Teachers like Oom Dawie may have had limited autonomy or influence over the curriculum and educational policies enforced by the authorities.
