PRESS RELEASE:
COMMUNICATION ABOUT THE CHILDREN IN THE HOËRSKOOL FOCHVILLE MATTER

The Centre for Child Law acts on behalf of a group of children currently attending Hoerskool Fochville. The Centre is represented in the court proceedings by the Legal Resources Centre.

The Centre was instructed by the children that they do not want to be exposed to media coverage of the case and that they do not support the negative media surrounding Hoerskool Fochville and the school governing body.

There are 3 main reasons for the children's position: Firstly, despite the fact that there are difficulties in going to school at Hoerskool Fochville, the children enjoy their education there immensly. They are getting on with their life in the school and want to integrate and be a part of the school community. Negative publicity isolates them and prevents them from fully integrating and enjoying their school lives.

Secondly, the children feel that they are a part of the school, they respect their teachers and the education they receive, they are loyal to the school and they therefore do not like to see the school portrayed only in a negative light.

Thirdly every time there is any negative media coverage around this case the children are placed in an impossible position in the school.
