The media had been invited by the Gauteng department of education, but ahead of the meeting MEC Panyaza Lesufi opened the floor to hear the views of the parents on whether they wanted the media present.
The views of seven parents were heard. The majority of them said they were not keen to have journalists at the briefing. One said they were concerned about their identities being revealed. Another said they simply did not want the media there, arguing that they had reported inaccurately on the incident.
Only one of the seven parents was in favour of having the media present, arguing that other parents who were not present at the meeting were relying on the media to follow the proceedings. Lesufi agreed to exclude the media from the meeting, which was held at the school premises. “But we need to apologise to members of the media, because they were invited here,” he added.
I smell
It was a meeting specifically to address the SGB and the parents of the boys that currently go to Parktown Boys. Invitations sent out stated exactly that. General public are to get the report afterwards
Sweet it under the carpet as usual
I really don't like this
