Ekurhuleni - Two Grade 12 pupils accused of raping a Grade 9 pupil inside a toilet at an Ekurhuleni high school have been suspended, the Gauteng Department of Education announced on Monday.
The victim, 16, was apparently dragged to the toilet, where she was brutally assaulted and sexually violated. The department in a statement confirmed that Gauteng MEC for Education and Youth Development Panyaza Lesufi would visit the school on Tuesday. "The department has a zero-tolerance policy to allegations of sexual misconduct, and where the allegations are proven true, the department will not hesitate to take decisive action against the perpetrators."
"The said school is on high alert for any vehicle purported to be delivering drugs at the school, with intentions of dealing in and around the school. Such conduct will not be allowed or tolerated in our schooling environment."

Pre-grade R is on the timetable | Education | M>he education system has long been criticised for its seeming preoccupation with matric results. Critics point to the failure in results — and wider societal problems — and say more attention needs to be paid to children at different levels in the system. Children are given marks to pass. Education system must focus on application of knowledge and not emphasis exams and the regurgitation of information for tests and exams. That’s where Mzansi education system is failing us. Our learners are taught to pass exams, not to know subject matter. The ONLY way of improving the education system is to have properly trained staff that are motivated to improve the lives of learners. It is much more than a source of income. You have the future of this country in your hands. Being late and absent for days on end are nonsense!
