Concerned parents at Waterkloof Hoërskool in Pretoria have come forward with disturbing allegations of sexual grooming involving the school's principal. Speaking to Kaya News, they’ve accused the 50-year-old principal—whose identity is being withheld for legal reasons—of inappropriate physical contact, including giving schoolgirls unsolicited hugs. Parents also claim he made suggestive remarks, implying that some students were deliberately provocative for wearing uniforms that expose their shoulders and knees. The allegations have sparked outrage among families, who say they have reported the matter to the Department of Education and are demanding immediate action. Phemelo speaks to Kaya News Reporter Pitso Molemane who has been working on this investigation, Gauteng Education Department’s Steve Mabona and concerned parents at the school.
