The Curro independent school chain has been hit by another allegation of sexual abuse.

An investigation is under way after an 18-month-old baby from Curro Castle School in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, was allegedly sexually attacked about two weeks ago.

Mari Lategan, Curro spokesperson, said the school was cooperating with the police and a thorough investigation was underway.

“Curro has zero tolerance towards all forms of abuse and the various codes of conduct for employees and learners speak very strongly about and towards this,” said Lategan.
