Paton's original approach (involving freedom of movement, reward, and punishment) proved so successful in the rehabilitation of black juvenile offenders that in his 12 years as head, the Diepkloof Reformatory was transformed into a model school and Paton became known as an expert on rehabilitation techniques.
In 1935, after completing a series of courses at the University of Natal and teaching in the country school of Ixopo, Paton was appointed principal of the Diepkloof Reformatory school in the Transvaal Province, near the city of Johannesburg.
Born on January 11, 1903, in Pietermaritzburg, Natal, South Africa, Alan Paton was a committed humanitarian and an eloquent spokesman against apartheid.

The population in eastern Cape Province, Natal, Transvaal and northern Orange Free State has declined by up to 90%.
The majority of the remaining population is in eastern and southern South Africa, with a small and separate population in the Etosha Pan of northern Namibia.

The 39 of us from around the world boarded the coach on schedule bright and early for this tour, which was to last four days, and was to take us eastwards into the Transvaal province.
