On Wednesday a group of parents gathered at the school demanding answers. The parents accuse the school of rejecting their children based on race.
“I did apply, the principal told me to wait and wait, until today and I don’t know when they are going to call us because the schools have re-opened already. The issue is every time we come to do follow up, it’s always us black people. We have never had white people having the same problem, and it’s not the first time. It’s been years, we’ve been applying and we always get rejected and it is so painful. The requirements they need we always have them. We work here and we stay here.
“If we receive claims of racism we will definitely investigate to verify that, but now we haven’t received any complain from the parents, but we will be following up on that. But we want to encourage parents, should they have such incident they must report to the Department.” says Moyane.
🤫. Children are born with human rights to CHOOSE their preferred education in language, culture, or religion. But the poor black children must just go to the nearest school because they have NO options. The government doesn't provide for everyone. ?
Same old same old.
Why? Cyril is openly and blatantly RACIST. The President sets the example. CyrilRamaphosa PresidencyZA
Stop playing the race card to hide the mass destruction card
Good! About time👍🏾
Stop destroying schools so we don't have this situation in future..over 400 schools destroyed just during the looting months...what do the people expect...vandalism and destruction is not securing futures...development and growth do
What's up with these laerskole en hoerskole? Black learners are not wanted there?
Mpumalanga is failing to treat racism in former white schools
Meanwhile Court orders SAPS to compensate COL Oosthuizen R300k (and apologize) after she was harassed internally- for false claims of 'racism': 2x officers were found criminally guilty after falsely accusing her of using the K-word and were eventually dishonourably discharged🦗🦗
Why are we surprised? White South Africans are born racists. They won't condemn it. Where's DA...? They're quiet; it's not their fight.
Stop mediocrity in the school system and provide sufficient capacity to accommodate all kids that want to go to school, preferably in their mother tongue...
Please let's extend the intervention at Simon Bekker laerskool in Servaas and Rebecca Street Pretoria west, kids staying around are not admitted and kids born before June 2018 are not admitted too. They admit kids coming from Pretoria North and other areas which are not within
The department ought not to only investigate, but it shall also remove those retarded racists from the education system.
