Forensic audit to be undertaken as Lesufi meets with Laerskool Theresapark SGB

A forensic audit is to be undertaken at Laerskool Theresapark in Pretoria after Gauteng MEC for Education, Panyaza Lesufi met with the institution's School Governing Body (SGB) on Friday night. 

The Department of Basic Education in Gauteng has slammed the behaviour of some parents at Laerskool Theresapark following a heated clash with the school's principal on Thursday.

In a widely circulated video, parents are seen carrying the principal on her chair headed for the school's doors.

She flings from her chair, hitting the ground hard.

It's understood the disgruntled parents got wind of the alleged abuse of other teachers by the principal.

On Friday, Lesufi said he wanted the interventions at the school to be undertaken with speed. 

"We'll put a forensic investigation to check the finances of the school," he said. 

"We are putting up an independent firm to investigate all the allegations of bullying and resignations that were happening at the school," he added. 

"The school should move with speed to get its finances right," he noted. 

A parent's meeting was expected to take place on Saturday. 

The SGB has welcomed Lesufi's intervention in the matter.
