Phumla Sekhonyane, spokesperson for the Gauteng Department of Education, said: ”The department is satisfied with the outcome of this matter”.
The dismissal comes after Dr Horn told pupils, in November, that she did not have a problem with the white and Indian pupils, because she knew they washed their hair daily; she had a problem with the black girls, because they washed their hair only once a month.
She went on to say that washing their hair once a month made them dirty, because it was the same as bathing only once a month.
Dr Horn said some pupils were fat, and she made girls with chemically straightened hair wash it with Sunlight Liquid.
The former principal has been serving a suspension since late November.
The City Times is trying to get comment from the school on the finding.
