MATATIELE - Eastern Cape Education MEC, Fundile Gade, has backtracked on his decision to close Bergview College in Matatiele.
Officials planned to shut the school over it's handling of the rape of seven-year-old pupil, Cwecwe.
The school had launched an urgent court application to halt the closure.
Their court papers revealed that two taxi drivers, a school janitor and a family member are cited as the 'persons of interest' police have been investigating.
