August 2019  \nTO ALL MEDIA EDITORS  \nMEDIA STATEMENT  \nThe South African Council for Educators has noted the unpalatable story of what happened to the teacher who spent so much time in prison after being falsely accused and jailed for a sin he did not commit.  \nThese are very disturbing stories and are part of an assault teachers face in the country and we condemn in the strongest possible terms the scheming perpetuated by some individuals in the course of character assassination of our teachers.  \nWe are appreciative that the truth has finally surfaced about this matter although we were never informed or given a report about this incident, we shall be establishing a panel to investigate matter and more importantly provide the teacher with support the necessary support in dealing with his ordeal.  \nIt is against this background that we call on the nation to refrain from falsely accusing teachers and in the process destroying their lives.  \nIt is more so disgusting that children as young as this child will be used in such scheming.  \nWe want to assure the nation and the profession in particular that our processes are so thorough and that we do not tolerate any false accusations reported to us, we will not hesitate to deal harshly with the perpetrators  \nIssued by the SACE Communications  \nFor more information, contact the SACE Spokesperson  \nThemba Ndhlovu
