A 20-year-old man and his twin brother were arrested after fighting with security officials outside Table View High School.
It is alleged that a security guard got into a scuffle after he removed his gun from its holster to try and disperse the brothers and his friends.
The gun went off and the 20-year-old was shot in his right shoulder and was treated at Groote Schuur Hospital. He was later discharged.
Charges of attempted murder and of releasing a firearm in a municipal area were laid against the security guard on Wednesday.
The police's Captain Elliot Sinyangana said that, because the intention of criminality was not shown by the security guard, his case will be investigated and sent to the office of the senior prosecutor.
Reports say that the school had no connection with the twins.
