The Ministry of Education has not turned a blind eye to the videos circulating on social media showing school children fighting.In fact, Chief Education Officer Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw told Barbados TODAY that the ministry was aware and concerned about the scenes captured on video and circulated via social media and has called for a total societal approach to arresting the problem.Dr Archer-Bradshaw, said the ministry continues to roll out a series of programmes across the schools to tackle the vexing issue.“The Ministry of Education, Technological and Vocational Training has seen the videos circulating on social media. Yes, the kinds of fights that we are seeing are cause for concern. “No, we are not turning a blind eye at all. As Barbadians these behaviours are not behaviours that we want to see. They are not synonymous with being a Bajan and we recently celebrated Independence,” she said.
