Updated | By Jacaranda FM News
Grade 12 learners from a school in Katlehong will have to rewrite their Geography after they were allegedly fed the answers by the principal.

As thousands of matric learners celebrate their final question paper on Wednesday, learners from Mpontsheng Secondary School in the east of Johannesburg will have to remain seated.
Quality regulator Umalusi has now requested that the Department of Basic Education compel the learners registered for the subject – to rewrite it.
The chief invigilator, who is also the principal and Geography teacher, allegedly gave the answers to the learners before their exam.
According to the provincial education department, the educator has been placed on a “precautionary transferred to the district office”.

Spokesperson Steve Mabona says he is also facing disciplinary action.
“The department supports Umalusi’s decision that learners in the implicated school should re-write their Geography paper 1 so that the integrity of the exam is not compromised."
The learners are expected to rewrite the question paper on Thursday.
