ROBERT Tredgold School in Bulawayo has been rocked by an unbelievable case of foul-mouthed behaviour after a Grade Seven pupil reportedly launched a shocking verbal attack on his teacher, branding her a “dog” and a “lesbian”!
Documents obtained by Bmetro reveal the unsettling allegations against the pupil, whose name has been withheld for ethical reasons, born on April 30, 2012. The explosive incidents, detailed in official correspondence from the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education, paint a picture of a child with a disturbingly uncouth tongue.
The letter states that on March 27, 2025, the unthinkable happened when the boy allegedly directed vile insults at his class teacher.
But the shocking behaviour doesn’t end there! Just the day before, on March 26, the boy is accused of verbally abusing a fellow Grade Seven pupil, with equally disgusting language. He allegedly told the pupil that his parents were prostitutes and made a crude and bizarre reference to them drinking tea “inside a condom”!
Adding to the catalogue of alleged misdeeds, the boy is also accused of physical violence. On February 19, he reportedly beat another pupil, leaving him with a swollen eye and mouth.
And when a senior teacher tried to reprimand him for the assault, the response was reportedly even more outrageous. The letter claims the boy retorted by saying he wanted to “deal with people who have big t*t*cl*s” and chillingly threatened to “mark an X on the teacher’s buttocks”!
The disciplinary outcome, stated in stark terms, is the exclusion of the boy from Robert Tredgold School, effective May 13, 2025, “for sanity to prevail in the school”.
The incident has sent shockwaves through the Bulawayo community, with many parents expressing disbelief and concern over such alleged behaviour from a child. How could a young boy allegedly utter such vile and disrespectful words? What could have led to this shocking display of disrespect?
This unprecedented case raises serious questions about discipline in schools and the level of uncouth language some youngsters are allegedly resorting to. Bmetro will continue to follow this developing story …
