The principal of Wilgehof Primary in Bloemfontein, where the old South African flag and pictures of Julius Malema alongside monkeys were displayed in a class, has been fired, according to a report.
Beeld newspaper reported on Wednesday that Fanie Roeloffze was sacked on Tuesday. Earlier this month a disciplinary hearing by the Free State education department found him guilty of not doing anything about the displays in a classroom.
His representative Marius van Rensburg said they would appeal the decision. He said the finding was a shock, as lighter sentences had been given to teachers found guilty of more serious offences.
Two teachers were suspended in connection with the matter. The outcome of their cases was not immediately known.
