THE ALEXANDRA SCHOOL and principal Jeff Broomes are back in the public glare – this time over the cutting of a student’s hair and subsequent suspension.
The boy’s parents have also been prohibited from entering the St Peter school until Monday when they are due to meet the principal.
Irate mother Rosemary Yearwood told the DAILY NATION yesterday that her son came to her workplace last Friday evening in tears and with a bandana on his head.
She said the boy had left home with the muff he had been wearing for years, and which is sported by several other boys at the school, and returned with it off and the hair in patches.
