WATCH: Roodepoort Primary school parents express anger
Updated | By Sune du Toit
Lesufi threatened to close down the school if disruptions continue.
Parents claim there is lack of racial transformation at the school after the appointment of a black principal last year.
About 15 teachers didn't report for duty on Tuesday, fearing for their lives.
Gauteng Education Spokesperson Phumla Sekhonyane says security at the school has been beefed up and urged teachers to return to class.
