Following the altercation on April 25th, Education Minister Shawn Edward voiced the Ministry’s disapproval with the altercation, and says violence will never be endorsed.

“I don't know the circumstances that triggered the altercation between the child and the adult, but I want to profit the opportunity to denounce all forms of violence or fights or skirmishes in school, whether those involve students alone or students with adults in the community,” he said.
