Parents of students studying at Visena Community High School in Isabel Province have called on the school principal and the school bursar to explain why they send 20 of its students home this week.

Speaking to SIBC News a concern parent says while the explanation they received from the school was valid they are still not happy why some of the students who already paid for their semester one fees are also among the students sent home.

He says the parents are really worried that their children are missing out on lessons and therefore called on the school authority to clarify the issue.

He adds parents believe, the school bursar is not doing his job properly which is why students who already paid their school fees for semester one are also sent home.
