Tensions flared outside a Durban primary school as immigrant parents stood guard against a local activist group. Foreign nationals at Addington Primary School feared members of March and March would attempt to remove their children, following a prior visit from the group alleging the institution unfairly enrolls pupils with foreign parents.

A parent from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Sikizani Furaha, expressed community terror, stating the group previously chased people from a local hospital. March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma countered that her group was supporting local South African parents whose children failed to secure admission, blaming department inaction.

Ngobese-Zuma claimed a majority of learners have foreign parents and avoid fee payments. A South African parent, Zethembiso Mthembu, accused immigrant parents of aggressive behavior and flaunting money. The national education department reaffirmed every child's right to basic education, prohibiting exclusion due to missing documentation.
