After spending only one day at school, four boys will spend the next seven days away from class after being suspended following their involvement in a fight on Monday afternoon.

But while the boys will be away from school, police say they will not be left idle, as they will be required to attend a youth development programme during their suspension.

The boys, who are believed to be students of Northeastern College, Sangre Grande, were recorded fighting outside another school on Ojoe Road.
