Mother of bullied learner speaks out

A Northern Cape mother of a 10-year-old child who is being bullied at school is calling on authorities to take the issue of school bullying seriously.

She says her Grade-5 daughter suffers serious mental distress after facing endless bullying incidents for a year at her school. The mother alleges the bullies use racial slurs against her child, who has since moved to another school.
