Accusations resurface

The teachers, who do not want to be named, have levelled accusations at the school's senior management team that is made up of the head teacher and heads. They say they have been subjected to victimisation because instead of the common practise of rotating invigilators, recruitment for this year's invigilation was done secretly.

"We approached the head teacher a week before examinations commenced, but he told us that he didn't know anything because he had just arrived from school," says one teacher. However, the teachers say the head teacher, Mmoloki Mosomong, returned to duty in May. "We are frustrated because 'loyalty' is being used to punish those who boycotted invigilation last year," the teacher says. The head teacher declined to comment. "We are not allowed to talk to the media," he said tersely.
