Catholic board pleased with move to educate migrant children
Sharon Mangroo, CEO of the Catholic Education Board of Management is elated that the government is finally looking at including migrant children in the local primary school system.
“We have worked for four years to make this happen. So we are very happy that the government has adjusted its policy to make it possible.”
At a breakfast meeting hosted by US Ambassador Candace Bond at the Hilton Trinidad, Port of Spain, on Thursday, Foreign and Caricom Affairs Minister Dr Amery Browne said the Education Ministry was working with key stakeholders on this integration in the upcoming school year.
Mangroo told Newsday the school board had been preparing while it was waiting for the government to make the move.
She said not all Roman Catholic schools were fully populated, so the board contacted its principals to identify any vacancies, being careful not to deny a place to a local child. The board asked principals and teachers which of them were willing to accept migrants and many agreed, providing the board with a list of resources needed to facilitate the adjustment.
She said UNICEF and several other international agencies assisted with resources to get the necessary items, training was provided for teachers in all schools on identifying and addressing learning challenges, and UWI provided training in teaching English as a second language.
“While we have not yet been able to get migrant children in the schools, the teachers have been using that training because, for many of our children, standard English is a second language as they use creole. So that training has been very beneficial to them.”
She said the participating schools also provided orientation for parents and students so they could understand the trauma of having to leave their homes and countries under adverse circumstances.
Mangroo added that Living Water Community had been providing education to migrants outside of the school system, teaching English and the TT curriculum. The board proposed those children go into the school system first so there was minimum disruption.
“Now that Government has said, ‘Ok we are willing to change our policy and talk,’ they will now have to give us their conditions. We know, of course, one condition is that no local child must be displaced. That is a given.”

But i am also of the strong opinion that many reported/alleged/hearsay cases are from Xenophobic Trinis who damn well know its their own people but blaming it on the Venes. But, i will say again that I am agreeing that there is some increase in the crime from the Venezuelans.
One thing eh, the Venes not raping like the Trinis. I also notice most of the robberies they are not harming the victims.

But the red mis government and 1% said they need a work force as Trinis are not doing slaving wuk.j.o.e wrote:Dem Vennies hadda go, they throwing off the labour market by working for next to nothing. Everyone talking about raising minimum wage but these Vennies not even legitimately on the books so they will always take less than a local.
More locals on the breadline is more idle hands for crime.
I was building a shed in bago for my Cows & chickens and it was hard to find workers. Bago people simply did not want the job. Those that did want the job was problematic, these fvckers was doing 2 and 3 jobs at the same time. They would come to work for 2 to 3 days in the week and hang up my job.MaxPower wrote:^ Zoom,
Well said man, i expected that experience with the Venes.
The Venes are the preferred workers…generally speaking. It have the worthless ones but the output is a little better.
ANY work i am looking to get done my first option is a Venezuelan…if that don’t work out then i go with a local and hope for the best.
