whether you guys Tag her or not, will never bring the child back, she must pay for her wrongs, get into her pockets, money she was surpose to receive for her pension pay out must at least be given to the child family and the department of education must assist that family to cope with this incident, not only that, there is a lot of educational problems in Mpumalanga that needs your attention, you only seem to be functioning when someone passes on and the rest are just jokes to you, look at the Minister, she looks like someone who know s her duties and she does nothing for the school children, the police, what do you want on the photo shoot, go catch criminals out there and stop acting like you are working.

I am sure wa itshola nou. When I was a standard 4(now grade 6), one teacher beat up our classmate so hard. He tried to run away, but the teacher grabbed him, picked him up and threw him on the ground. The class was so quite, we were all terrified. The scumbag once slapped me so hard I thought I had swollen eye. Kikikiki. Mpama ya patrek jong!!

Personally, I am not against corporal punishment. I am against excessive beating of a child. Agg nee, I remember now. The incident I am talking about, that guy threw that boy against the wall. The one of another throwing a pupil to the ground was a different incident.

why is she not in jail?! if not for murder, then for assualt.
what does being barred do? if she doesnt get a job in the province she will get it else where and she will continue with her killing spree.

I think the time is now to have some rigid rules whereby a person who attempts to commit a wrongful deed know that by his own will or choice he/she bear the consequences of such...this teacher must not teach at all not only in the province where the act was committed.. but South Africa in its entirely.

This teach must be killed as well. Both side must be equal. the family now is crying for their child, maybe tomorrow this child would be Dr,somebody who is professianal in this poor country. To the Dep of Educ in Mpumalanga is very good for the decision that they have took 101%

That basterd should not just be fired, she must ROT in jail. If the family cannot afford to hire a good legal team they should mobilise the people of MP to donate money to pay for legal fees. When we send our kids to school is solely for them to learn NOT to be ASSAULTED.

This stupid son of a b******* teacher to me and I will sort her out. People of MP let us come together and help this family and donate money to get a good legal team. if they don't get justice since there is none in Mzansi, we can always take the law in to our own hands.

Eeeish mara , whats up with this prosecutors , what more evidence do you need in such cases , was the child sick no , did the teacher beat him up YES, were the witnesses YES, did the post mortem reveal that he died because of injuries Im sure this is also YES, so what more do you want ,OH LET ME GUESS , A Video clip that the teacher made when beating up the child.... then you are in for a long wait .... and her loosign her job means nothing, she can always find another different job and carry on her lifestyle , SO THIS IS NOTHING , THE POOR CHILD HAS NOT RECEIVED THE JUSTICE HE SO DESERVES . PLEASE BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY FOR SUCH IDIOTS ...
