School fight.

School fight.

Po­lice are set to in­ves­ti­gate yet an­oth­er school fight, this time at the Ch­agua­nas South Sec­ondary School.

This was con­firmed by Min­is­ter of Ed­u­ca­tion Dr Nyan Gads­by-Dol­ly who said the mat­ter has been re­ferred to the po­lice.

Yes­ter­day, video footage of an al­ter­ca­tion be­tween two girls sur­faced on so­cial me­dia.

One of the girls seemed to be knocked un­con­scious.

Gads­by-Dol­ly said this was be­cause of a med­ical con­di­tion and the in­ci­dent in­ten­si­fied her symp­toms.

The min­is­ter said the stu­dent was treat­ed at a pub­lic health fa­cil­i­ty yes­ter­day and had a fol­low-up vis­it to­day.

She said their par­ents were called to the school and of­fi­cers of the Stu­dent Sup­port Ser­vices Di­vi­sion are con­tin­u­ing to coun­sel the par­ties in­volved.

Mean­while, Mem­ber of Par­lia­ment for Cha­gau­nas East Van­dana Mo­hit strong­ly con­demned vi­o­lence at the sec­ondary school and com­mend­ed the ear­ly in­ter­ven­tion of the po­lice.

She al­so re­quest­ed a small to­ken of ap­pre­ci­a­tion for the boys seen help­ing the un­con­scious stu­dent.
