PM Demands Remove Violent Students | Trinidad and Tobago News

Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar is escalating her zero-tolerance stance on school violence, demanding critics take disruptive students into their own homes if they disagree — arguing that well-behaved children and families shouldn’t pay the price for others’ behavior. She’s targeting teachers’ unions and political parties for failing to protect schools, citing the tragic suicide of 15-year-old Jayden Lalchan as proof of the urgent need for change. While some groups warn against expelling students without support, the Prime Minister insists safety must come first — backed by her administration’s ongoing measures, including police presence and criminal charges, since taking office in May 2025.
