As the sentencing of convicted paedophile Collan Rex, a former assistant water polo coach at Parktown Boys’ High, was postponed on Wednesday, it emerged that 98 teachers were fired in the last financial year for a host of serious offences, including having sexual relationships with pupils.
A further 483 teachers from six provinces were slapped with final written warnings and 308 with fines, while 119 were suspended without pay.
