A disturbing video showing a Grade 10 learner from Milnerton High School being assaulted by a group of boys has ignited national outrage and calls for stricter measures against school bullying
The incident reportedly occurred on 16 October, shortly after classes ended, and footage of the attack began circulating on social media a few days later.
In the video, the 16-year-old student is seen enduring both physical and verbal abuse while other learners look on without intervening.
The clip was brought to wider attention by United Democratic Movement (UDM) member Nqabayomzi Kwankwa, who shared it on Facebook alongside a statement from the victim’s mother.
In her statement, she accused Milnerton High School of failing to protect her son despite repeated reports of bullying.
‘My son, a Grade 10 student at Milnerton High School, has been subjected to bullying, physical assault, harassment, and emotional abuse by a group of boys, including some members of the school’s Rugby First Team,’ the mother said.
‘These 18-year-olds, who should embody strength, discipline, and leadership, have instead chosen to intimidate and harm others. I’m speaking out for my son, and for every student who has been silenced, dismissed, or ignored. To Milnerton High School in Cape Town: it is your duty to protect your students.’
The video has prompted widespread condemnation from parents, educators, and community leaders, reigniting the debate over how South African schools address bullying and the responsibilities of institutions to safeguard their students.
