Another incident of violence unfolded at New Campbellville Secondary School last week when a 12-year-old schoolgirl was brutally assaulted by her classmates.
The incident has since sparked outrage in the community and prompted the victim’s parents to seek intervention from the Ministry of Education to ensure justice and safety within the school.
In a video seen by Stabroek News, circulating on social media, the girl, whose identity is being protected for her safety, was sitting at her desk in her classroom which was apparently unsupervised at the time. One of the girl’s classmates confronted her and dealt her several blows to the head while laughing.
