This negatively impacts learning and teaching. For these students to study well, they need support from the educational system. However, how school management systems support orphaned and vulnerable learners affected by HIV/AIDS is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore how the management systems support learners affected by HIV/AIDS in schools. A qualitative research methodology with an explorative approach was utilised to conduct the study.enTuberculosisHIVPublic healthSexuality educationTeaching and LearningUniversity of the Western Cape
