Two Venezuelan brothers attending Stewartville Secondary School on the West Demerara are now nursing serious injuries to the head and hand after being assaulted by schoolmates on Monday afternoon.
Chief Education Officer (CEO) Saddam Hussain says that the Ministry of Educa-tion (MoE) is currently investigating the matter.
The incident comes on the heels of another at the Queenstown Secondary School where a Venezuelan student was attacked.
According to the mother of the boys, the incident began at around 14:00 hours just outside the school as her 14-year-old son was heading to a friend’s house to eat.
