QUEENSTOWN: TEACHER SUSPENDED OVER ALLEGED MISCONDUCT

School sex pest probe

A male teacher at the prestigious Queenstown Girls' High School in the Eastern Cape has been suspended pending an investigation by the provincial department of basic education into allegations of sexual misconduct.

This follows a social media stir caused by a post on X by a former pupil on Wednesday night.

In the now-viral post, the whistle-blower accuses the top school in Komani (formerly Queenstown) of turning a blind eye, despite the teacher's alleged inappropriate conduct having been reported on several occasions.

The former pupil alleges that the teacher has been in "multiple sexual relationships" with matric pupils and even impregnated one. The post also states that pupils "are terrified of the teacher" and "don't feel safe at school because he is too flirty".

The whistle-blower alleged the teacher was suspended from other schools for the same reasons and accused Queenstown of ignoring that.
