The Gauteng Education Department has suspended the code of conduct of a private Kempton Park School following a series of complaints and allegations of racism. More than 20 black girl pupils were kicked out of the school for having braided hair. The incident went viral on social media prompting a visit by the Education MEC. Last year, pupils at Pretoria Girls High protested over a similar incident where traditional African hairstyles were prohibited. For more news, visit: http://www.sabc.co.za/news
