On Friday, the school governing body removed the teacher who was already on suspension.

The 33-year-old was suspended after he allegedly sexually assaulted two pupils between 2017 and last year.

Gauteng Education Department’s Steve Mabona said: “We encourage learners to never listen to anybody who tells them not to tell because they fear being victimized. Learners must report such incidents to their parents, police or any other trusted figure of authority.”

The teacher will be back in the Alexandra Magistrates Court next month.
