For­mer ed­u­ca­tion min­is­ter Dr Nyan Gads­by-Dol­ly is not im­pressed by the Gov­ern­ment’s move to ex­pel stu­dents who per­pe­trate acts of vi­o­lence in school. The for­mer min­is­ter said in­ci­dents of school vi­o­lence have al­ready been re­port­ed to the Trinidad and To­ba­go Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS).

How­ev­er, she warned Gov­ern­ment that “lock­ing up young peo­ple can­not be your plan.”

Gads­by-Dol­ly said Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar’s an­nounce­ment is noth­ing new.
