Defence lawyer, William Booth, and Sans Souci Girls' High School teacher, Clarissa Venter, outside the Wynberg magistrate's court on Tuesday. Venter is facing charges of common assault after she allegedly slapped a pupil.The family of the Sans Souci Girls' High School pupil who was allegedly assaulted by her teacher earlier this month says life has been hard since the incident - with the 16-year-old girl having"sleepless nights" due to the trauma she experienced.
The mother of the Grade 9 pupil from Gugulethu, who can't be named to protect the identity of the minor, said not only did her daughter have to deal with the stress of not going to school for almost a month, but also with threats allegedly made by fellow pupils. School friends of the girl - who was suspended early in February after the incident - allegedly “threatened to harm her should she go back to the school”, her mom said.
The grade 9 pupil, who spoke to TimesLIVE with the permission of her mother, said February had been a"scary time for me and my friends due to threats that I've been getting and not going to school". "It's a very scary situation. School is supposed to be a safe space for kids to go. It's where you spend most of your time, and your teacher is supposed to be like your mother. I was very hurt with what has happened.
That kid deserves a lot more snot klaps. She must apologize to the teacher.
Nope your mother taught you the disrespect and arrogance that you displayed in the video. Your mother should be more like the teacher and tech you how to behave not the other way around. kidsthesedaysarehorrible
No sweetheart, your teacher is not supposed to be like your mother!
