Hoërskool Jan Viljoen parents in the west of Johannesburg on Sunday said they wanted equal treatment for all pupils and equal diversity representatives at the school.

Gauteng education MEC Panyaza Lesufi visited the school for a parents' meeting, which was rescheduled after it didn't proceed on Thursday due to rain.

I went ahead to meet with our learners. It was a difficult exercise, it was a painful exercise. It was an exercise that till today I regret but still appreciate."They also felt they need assistance and need support to manage diversity and the new environment they are teaching in," he said. "I want to declare to the management that this school belongs to all of us, all of us must feel safe. Our purpose is to ensure that we deliver quality education and save our children from the trauma of racism. We will never tolerate any form of racism, regardless of where it comes from."Image:"I was sad that in the same meeting, parents did exactly what children did. I am urging you as parents to embrace a truly non racial SA," he said.

"When these allegations were presented to us, I called the SGB and the principal and agreed that he must not step his feet until he is cleared." Another parent, Lerato Mofokeng, said her grade 8 child has complained about what happened to her friend and how a bottle of water was thrown at her when she tried to assist.
