Reporting a case of bullying with the SAPS seems to be the only way to resolve the matter if it is not handled by the school.

Reporting a case of bullying with the SAPS seems to be the only way to resolve the matter if it is not appropriately handled by the school.

This was after the South African Human Rights Commission’s preliminary findings that the principal of Mbilwa Secondary School in Limpopo had failed to take appropriate action to resolve the bullying which led to Grade 10 learner Lufuno Mavhuga being violently beaten by a fellow learner and then later committing suicide.

SAHRC spokesperson Victor Mavhidula said Lufuno had reported the perpetrator to the school principal but the matter was ignored. The principal told Lufuno to return to the same class her perpetrator was in.
