The incident comes amid reports of wayward behaviour among learners particularly since the reopening of schools on the 28th of September.
Some observers attribute the behaviour to teachers’ absence in school saying there is no one to monitor and control learners.
Teachers embarked on industrial action when schools reopened demanding the restoration of their 2018 salaries which were around USD500.
