The Foundation for Education and Social Justice Africa has called on the government to scrap the terms 'head boy' and 'head girl' in schools.

JOHANNESBURG - There are mixed views on a call to do away with the terms "head boy" and "head girl" in the country's schools.

It says these can be harmful to learners who identify as non-binary or transgender, as it sends the message that they are not equal or capable of holding leadership positions. Some say that it is not a significant issue and does not change the lived experiences of those in the LGBTQI+ community, while others believe change is due.

Mxm nonsense

Pull down your pants and look there is only 2 genders, boy and girl live with it.

What utter garbage? Why force on us your believe system. I think SAns at large should take a stand against this nonsense. The reason why we are failing in this country it’s because we have time to entertain this nonsense. We can use that energy to take SA forward. Not this crap

How about NOT!!

What’s wrong with saying boy and girl.

Head Prefect for the best and the worst could be 'ANC Cadre'!

So people can't be called boy or girl now?

So, no.

Voetsek !!!

If only asshole was a gender.

FFS.. Its so offensive to have a gender nowadays.. Grow up..
