The Western Cape Education has obtained an interdict against the Congress of South African Students.

In a statement the department says the interdict was granted on Friday night and it restrains Consas from gathering or causing a gathering within 300 metres of any examination centre.

The interdict comes after Education MEC Donald Grant strongly condemned the disruption of matric exams at schools in Khayelitsha, Phillippi and Langa.
