Papitalai investigations continue
Mon Apr 20, 2009 12:00pm
Papitalai Secondary School in the Manus province would remain closed
as investigations into the recent student riots continue.
Manus Provincial Education Advisor Pompiran Kuyei said the school
will not commence classes in the coming week due to the special
investigations being carried out.
Mr. Kuyei said whilst students and parents are looking forward to the
commencement of the second term on Monday, April 20, the Papitalia
Secondary School will remain suspended until further notice.
He said the school will remain suspended until the special
investigation team have completed their thorough investigation into
the recent student riot at the school.
The team has been authorized to complete all its findings in 10
working days.
He said while this is unfortunate, this case calls for no other
options, but to continue the suspension in order to allow a probe into
the events of the students' riot.
At the same time, the Provincial Education Board is seeking
strategies to prevent similar happenings in the future. |
