Police reports confirm stabbing Alexandra School

Some parents of students at Alexandra School remain concerned about the rising level of crime among the youth. This after police reports confirm a stabbing incident at the Speightstown, St. Peter School premises. Tonya Mangal, who was collecting her son, says searches should be conducted at every gate to enter schools, and communication should have been sent to parents about this particular incident. Meanwhile, Byron Gibson says he is uncertain that any school can provide an adequate level of security with the vast numbers. He says he was informed of the situation via social media, but he believes that the first concern is to the injured student. A release from the Ministry of Education states the injured party was taken for medical attention after the school was closed at 2 p.m. to allow for a complete investigation. The Ministry says it will continue to monitor the students' progress, and provide the necessary support to students, teachers and staff of the Alexandra School.
