Peetron Thomas Advocates for Urgent Review of Harrison Centre’s Late Entry Policy and Student Treatment

1. Peetron again?? This ya gettin exhausting now!!

   I start think dis dude craves attention and now needs professional mental help, cuz why oh why every month Peetron put out a press release to insert himself in the national news? Soon he go put out a press release that “Peetron goes to the toilet twice inna day”
   FOH wit all ya drama dude, Harrison Centre have rules, just follow them or GYPG.
   And don’t bother go on FB today looking pity and crying about people always picking on you n now u see their true Colours blah blah blah

   • yes he likes attention just like “Turks Lee”

2. Valid points and recommendations. However, it raises a few concerns:
   1. If the “no entry after 8:30” is the school’s standard, adult students should adapt. Punctuality remains a quality that many young people still have not fully understood. Educational institutions teach and enforce these vital skills.
   2. While I do believe that the school should allow individuals to express their reasons (as this is even done at the secondary level), it may require a thorough evaluation of students’ affairs, which would need a robust structure for continued success.

3. Thank you for bringing this to our, the public’s, attention. No school in any civilized society should have such a policy to deny all students entry for being late, and without a process that considers on a case-by-case basis whether to allow entrance.

   It is this ignorance, inhumanity, and unprofessionalism that is causing the high crime rates and other horrible detriments to the people of Antigua and Barbuda.

   These folks who are in charged should not be in charge and most likely was placed there because of political affiliation and they only have the intelligence to focus on ideology instead of pragmatic research and understanding.

   This letter reminded me of going to police headquarters to make a second donation but was denied entry or Accommodation to be in the air conditioning inside the police headquarters in Antigua and Barbuda because I had shorts on.

   The ABLP government allows such ignorant rule to exist which will clearly cause death, and horrible harms to the people of the United Islands of Antigua and Barbuda. I remember complaining this to the ABLP AG Steadroy Cutie Benjamin who said he will do away with such policies nationwide and to this day people are turned away from government buildings for wearing appropriate clothing in a burning hot Caribbean Island of Antigua and Barbuda, whose government is seeking international money because of global warming and other significant weather problems.

   Since they had me standing outside in hot, uncomfortable, and burning temporary with police officer at the front desk usually being extremely rude, was rude to, I couldn’t wait anymore and to this day in 2025 the items I had for donation to the police of the United Islands of Antigua and Barbuda could not be gifted (still in storage) and the items includes but is not limited to:

   Diving gears and waterproof/diving cameras (which attaches to diving goggles, metal detectors, radar guns, GPS/bug tracking, metal detectors, projectors, wildlife security/motion cameras, police reflector vest, laptops, desktops, scuba diving gears with go-pro detachable cameras, microscopes, spectrometers, chromatographs, and fingerprint development tools, alongside safety equipment like fume hoods and biosafety cabinets, police lights, wireless security cameras with screen, police motorbike helmet (as requested by the police), bull-horn system for police radio, walkie talkies, heat detection device/camera, police motorbike, electric pedal bike, police tactical gloves, neighborhood watch t-shirts, police radar gun, and so much more still sitting there in storage in Antigua from since 2024.

   So, I can truthfully say this, the ignorance and stupidity on focusing on ideology instead of common sense, research, humanity, reasonableness, etcetera is causing the people of Antigua and Barbuda to suffer significantly. I am 100% sure less crimes would be occurring, and more crimes would have been solved with my contributions to the people of the United Islands of Antigua and Barbuda.

   It is time the people of these United Islands hold those in charge accountable in something for their ignorance and stupidity.

   Most forensic tools needed in Antigua and Barbuda are already there because of a specific person’s way of helping. Just not handed over to incompetence and uncaring and selfish government/officials yet.

   Most of the talents we need are also available to Antigua and Barbuda but ignorance like the one that is subject of the authors letters blocks any progress in the United Islands. No elected government officials consider merit in Antigua and Barbuda.

4. Here comes the Peetron once again. Mr popular as he claimed failed to get a ride this time so reach school late.
   Man this is not primary school where headmaster stand at the entrance or where you forge an excuse, this supposed to be a place of higher learning and I want to believe the policy is as such, take or leave it.
   Here comes a grown-up who should have known better making noise, keep in mind he wasn’t 5 or 10 minutes late, not even 15, you lucky the security guard spoke to you.

5. I second this. We are grown folks having to succumb to childish rules. Not only do people have work at night, but we have other responsibilities as well. This is foolishness

   and not only the entry, but the issue with the cafeteria as well!!!

6. There are no colleges or universities that I went to that blocks adults from entering classes whenever they enter, no matter how late, as long as it is not during an example. This is not primary school or secondary school but grown folks who should be allowed to determine their life and face their consequences for their decision. But you do not block them from entering a class. At minimum have a enter without disturbing other students rule. But not in a postsecondary school.

7. Join a gym, Peetron. Start work out. Loose some weight. No, loose plenty weight

   You might get more attention.

8. The school policy is downright correct. Going to work and school late in Antigua and Barbuda is embedded in the DNA of Antiguans. Some live in English Harbour and working in town for 8 ocklock and they will leave their home at 7.50 every day to reach work for 8 o’clock. Guys working g on the construction site who should be on the job for 8 coming to work like 9 o’clock. And their big phrase, Me nor care or, ah ya me born if their employer is not Antiguan born. They want an hour and a half for breakfast and 2 hours for lunch. Then the school now. School start at 9 am and all like 9 .30, children still strolling going to school. If you conduct a survey, there a people at certain establishments in Antigua goes to work late every day. The Harrison center is trying to correct this latenessand I fully agreed with them. If you only allow student to call on phone and say I will be late, you will run into serious trouble. Do I agreed with management at the Harrison center. And for that off balance he /she who love noticing, pay attention to the rules of the school. Next time you go to your mother’s grave to report to her what happened to you, tell her to send her spirit yo wake you up early.

9. There is no human right to be let into a institution if you are not abiding by their rules. I understand the rules are harsh given your position , but your a adult your not a kid, life isn’t easy and you don’t get a participation award for attendance.

   The Harrison center is a private/government project if i understand it… instead of crying out to the world to hear about your issue what have you done inside the institution to make change?

   Your article sounds as if you haven’t done much (assumption, but considering school is only one month in session you haven’t had much time to advocate for change)

10. If these “adult” students dont attend classes ontime who will the teacher be teaching?

    These “adult” dunce head students are the same ones will will write publications to stay that “the teachers did not teach” when they fail at “the basics” again.

    Dunce really cant hide boss
