WCED: Incident of alleged racism at Table View High School being probed

The Western Cape Education Department said that an investigation into alleged racism at Table View High School was underway.

This was after the K-word was allegedly used by a substitute teacher during a grade 12 history lesson on Wednesday last week.

Department spokesperson, Bronagh Hammond, said the school had since submitted a report along with statements from the learners.

“The school is monitoring the classroom practice of the substitute teacher and has apologised to the learners for the hurt they have experienced. If any learner requires counselling, they can be assisted.”

Hammond said that the incident was being investigated by the department’s labour relations directorate.

“They have scheduled a visit to the school and based on these findings, a decision will be made regarding a disciplinary hearing.”
