Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar says her Government is reviewing security protocols at all schools across the country, following reports that an intruder entered the Santa Rosa Government Primary School and assaulted several pupils earlier this month.
Speaking during Prime Minister’s Questions in the House of Representatives yesterday, Persad-Bissessar said the Ministry of Education had already responded by deploying social workers and consultants to provide trauma support. She said broader measures were also in progress.
“We are reviewing the current security protocols at that school and at all schools in the country,” she said. “More information will come during this debate when the Minister of Education will outline this Government’s policy initiatives to deal with security at all our nation’s schools.”
