DEAR EDITOR,
The recently reported incident of a teacher pulling a knife on a child and attacking a parent causing bodily harm is most appalling and an extremely serious situation. The Ministry of Education has to take the necessary steps to ensure dangerous weapons are not allowed on school premises. The safety of the school environment continues to be breached and the Ministry of Public Security has yet to make an impact on the continual aggressive atmosphere within the school system and the public domain. How much longer is the Guyanese public expected to wait for these two Ministries to take control and reduce the level of violence that our nation’s children are exposed to? There is yet to be a clear plan of action implemented in the school system that effectively puts an end to such aggression. Campaigning for office should not be at the neglect of doing what is more urgent and important.
Regards,
Mr. Jamil Changlee
Chairman
The Cooperative Republicans of Guyana
