A teacher at Curtis Nkondo School of Specialisation in Emdeni, Soweto, is under investigation after a Grade 11 learner alleges that an educator made an inappropriate sexual remark to her.

The Gauteng Department of Education says it has launched a probe into the claim of sexual misconduct involving educators and learners at the school. The investigation follows the learner’s report and focuses on whether the alleged comment occurred and whether it violated required conduct standards for educators.

While the reports available here do not provide further details on the remark, the investigation process, or any immediate disciplinary action, they indicate that the matter is being treated as a formal misconduct allegation and is now under the education department’s review.
