Louis Trichardt

My child is a learner of HS Louis Trichardt, it is a great school. Alot of misconceptions about the school. They are NOT racist like the reviews state. All kids are equal and all the kids have an equal chance to participate in all sports, cultural and social events, I see the support they give to children at many of the schools sports functions. It is a Christian school with good morals and values. Every single teacher that I have come across is supportive to ALL children, no matter what the race. My child have friends from many different cultural backgrounds. They support and care for each other.

This school is rich in apartheid,Its full of racism. They are suppose to treat both black and white kids equally but instead The black kids are treated as outcasts it's more like 25%-75%.when black kids wear grey pants they get chased away and are told to come back the next day or get their parents called but when the white kids wear grey pants it's okay.the black kids have limited subject choices, they aren't allowed to do agriculture,tourism and Hospitality because "It's only done in afrikaans" if you want to do this subjects get a class of 20+ people they say but there are classes with only 4 white kids being taught.Even when choosing LECs there's always 26 LECs but instead of making 13 black and 13 white its going to be 6 black and 20 white. At Hoërskool Louis Trichardt if you're black you'll be undermined. Some of the teachers there aren't even qualified, there's a teacher who's only qualified to teach grade8 maths yet he/she is teaching grade12 physical science(And you wonder why your kids are failing),there's also one who didn't even go to university yet he/she is teaching at the school. To show how racist they are they once even got offended when a kid prayed on the intercom in Tshivenda and was told never to pray in Tshivenda and only on English or Afrikaans. The school only care about the white kids because "They have money and sponsor the school". At this school you'll never be an equal unless you are white or have money

I'm giving this school 1 star because :this school seems to still be stuck in the apartide era The subject they offer are not the same between the white and black people The headboy and headgirl are always white people not black people Most of the teachers there are unqualified Most of them didn't even finish university
