Children's rights organisation, Fi We Children Foundation, is renewing its call for clearer legal limits on the authority of school administrators to exclude students from graduation ceremonies, following the case of a Holland High School student who was barred from graduating despite being selected to deliver the keynote address at the school's valedictory service.

The appeal follows The Gleaner's report on 16-year-old Khadedra Worrell, an honour student, school prefect and student leader, who was excluded from last month's graduation ceremony because she did not sit the school's mandatory Grade Nine Electronic Document Preparation and Management (EDPM) examination.
