· GOVERNMENT NOTICE No. 295 of 2002
This deal with expelling and suspending students from primary and secondary schools, such students include those with persistent disciplinary cases and those who have committed criminal wrongs such as theft, drug trafficking, prostitution amongst others. Students falling under this category are supposed to be expelled from school by either the School Board if it’s a secondary school or school committee if it involves a primary school.
This law allows the denial to the right to education. Indeed no right without a duty but under a circumstance involving a child one wonders whether it is in the child’s best interest to expel him/her from education. Even though discipline must be maintained but denying one education completely has far reaching effects especially to the future of the child and the society which will have to carry the burden of illiterates and unemployable members.
