According to his older brother the assault happened around 9am after the pupil arrived at West Ridge High School (WRHS) to write his English examinations.
This is not the first time the school has been in the news about pupils turning on each other. In August this year, the whole matric class were suspended and send home following the pupil’s 40 day’s celebrations.
“Two VW Golfs pulled up from which his assailants, some between Grade 9 and 11 and others already having left school, jumped out with shamboks and planks,” he said. His name is known to the Record but cannot be revealed to protect his brother.
“They surrounded him and proceeded to hit him, with many blows to his head, but before he lost consciousness a teacher eventually pulled him from the crowd.”
