A South African teacher allegedly posted threatening content and images of a firearm online following the termination of his contract with Hatyaiwittayalai School in Songkhla, prompting the school to switch to online learning on August 10 and 11. The school announced yesterday, August 8, saying the decision was made as a safety precaution while security measures are reviewed and strengthened. The dispute involved Pieter Johannes Dreyer, a former contract English teacher in the school’s English Program. Before the alleged firearm threats, Dreyer had been posting about the dispute on TikTok and Reddit. Hatyaiwittayalai School preserved the posts as evidence and filed a daily police report with Hat Yai Police Station while considering further legal action.
