Statement on the Security Concerns at the Irishtown Primary School by Acting Prime Minister and Minister of Education Hon. Dr. Geoffrey Hanley

Good day fellow citizens and residents. It is with a heavy heart that I address the nation today. On Tuesday 14th February after the close of school, a shocking, senseless act of violence unfolded on the premises of the Irishtown Primary School. This horrific crime has resulted in the death of one of our security officers. I am appalled at the callous disregard for human life and condemn ALL acts of violence. Our schools are Safe Zones where members of the school community should feel safe. Therefore, the Ministry of Education views this violent act as a direct attack on the education fraternity and the wider school community. I am certain that the effects from this heinous crime will reverberate throughout the school and surrounding neighbourhood and as such we pledge to do everything within our power to re-establish that sense of safety and security at the Irishtown Primary School.

After Sunday’s match, he spoke about how they intend to build on this victory. “I have to work on the defense. There are a lot of key players who are not here…and we have some reshuffling to do. We will have to go back to the pitch, to the drawing board and make things right,” Phipps said after Sunday’s match.
