Slapped pupil's mother decides to 'withdraw' her from Sans Souci, plans legal action | TammyPetersen87
The mother of the Cape Town pupil who was slapped during an altercation with her Afrikaans teacher has decided to"withdraw" her daughter from the school, her lawyers said on Thursday.
Department spokesperson Bronagh Hammond previously told News24 that in terms of regulations, if disciplinary proceedings were not conducted within seven school days after the suspension of the pupil, the governing body should obtain approval for the continuation of the suspension. The child's lawyers said the mother had no confidence that the disciplinary hearing scheduled for Friday would be"fair or impartial".
"The principal has explained that a process is being followed and they have to await the outcome of that process."
