EWN reports that a Bishop Lavis principal stabbed on his school grounds remains in a serious condition.  Bishops School of Skills principal Wayne Abrahams was stabbed in the head, neck and shoulder on Wednesday morning.  

He had reportedly been receiving threats warning him not to take disciplinary action against a 15-year-old learner accused of shooting a fellow pupil at the school last month.  Bishops School of Skills was expected to reopen on Friday after it was closed on Thursday following the stabbing on Wednesday.  An unnamed resident said the violence at the school was all gang-related.  The learner accused of shooting his peer last month appeared in court on Thursday.  The case was remanded to 4 May and he will remain in the care of his parents.
