Question 1
The governing body of Hoërskool Erasmus, east of Bloemfontein was forced by the
provincial department of education to accept 42 black English-speaking learners in
2014. The governing body contends that it is an exclusively Afrikaans school and has
had trouble accommodating the learners even though it did not have the necessary
capacity to provide for them. The governing body had a meeting to discuss the matter
with the parents of the new learners to challenge the departmental decision. As a
paralegal, the chairperson of the governing body of Hoërskool Erasmus requests you
to give legal advice in this matter.
Write a legal opinion in which you explain the scenario of the governing body’s
chances of success in its proposed legal battle with the the provincial department of
education.
