Parents are demonstrating for security at the Clare Hall Secondary School (CHSS).

They have gathered outside the school’s gate following an scary incident at the school last week in which two masked men beached the compound, one carrying a cutlass and the other carrying what was described as possibly a golf club, both threatening students and staff.

Parents said there was no security at the school.

In Cabinet note last week,  the Minister of Education Daryl Matthew made statements a condemning their behavior in keeping with the position of the Cabinet.

“Also, to reiterate the work in progress to equip our schools with IT surveillance to complement the physical presence of security.  These measures, as you are aware will be complemented with regular spot checks by law enforcement,” Prime Minister Gaston Browne added.

  1. Placing Police at these school without their weapon, will be just another another unarmed security guard and we know unarmed security will not and cannot protect anyone from harm. So if you are really serious all you need is one no nonsense, fully armed officer on premises.

  2. Teachers and Society need to demonstrate against parents who poorly raised their children that teachers and society now have to deal with. EVERYTHING STARTS IN THE HOME!!

  3. Where is ALISTER “inTERllectual” Thomas??? Ain’t the self-proclaimed President of National PTA??

  4. NO CORPORAL PUNISHMENT FOROUR CHILDREN !!!!
    BUT WE NEED A FULLY ARMED SECURITY AT THE SCHOOLS, READY TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE AND TO SHOOT TO KILL IF NECESSARY. I MAY SOUND LIKE I’M TUFF BUT IF SOCIETY FAILS IN RAISING THEIR CHILDREN THEN IT IS EXPECTED THAT THE GOVERNMENT PLACE HARSH MEASURES IN PLACE TO CURB THIS NONSENSE ON OUR LITTLE ISLAND.
