A St Catherine woman has been left worrying about the fate of her grandsons after she and the family was asked to find another school for the two cousins, who administrators at Enid Bennett High School have described as among the institution’s most problematic students.

The 15-year-old boys were among at least six students whose guardians were issued letters recommending a “change of environment” on July 1, after the Bog Walk-based school said it had exhausted a range of interventions aimed at changing the behaviour of the two boys. Administrators say they were the main players in a grade 10 student group that was running amok at the institution.

But while the school says the recommendation followed years of counselling, behavioural interventions, parent meetings and repeated efforts to get the boys back on track, their grandmother, Camille Webb*, claims she was blindsided.
