After a violent fracas at the Moruga Secondary School last week, which resulted in two students being suspended, several political leaders have outlined their plans to tackle bullying in schools.
Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar, at a political meeting at Himalaya Club, Barataria, on Monday, told supporters her government would introduce an anonymous anti-bullying app to allow students to report incidents. She added that parent patrols will also be implemented in all schools under her watch.
“This is where a parent of each enrolled student must spend at least one full day at the school of their child, working with deans, teachers, the TTPS, and student support services to maintain discipline. Parents should see what teachers have to deal with daily,” she said.
