I am not aware of any declaration forms that will be given to RKS students to sign – Akbar

Minister for Education Rosy Akbar says she is not aware of any forms that will be given to RKS students to sign before they return to school.

This comes after Fijivillage questioned Akbar on claims made that the students would have to sign a Declaration of Obedience and Respect Form.

She says all she is aware of is that the team that was conducting the investigations regarding the protest and allegations against the Principal met with parents of some of the students who were believed to have been in leading positions of the incident.

Akbar says she has also received an email from the RKS Parents, Teachers and Friends Association asking to meet with the Permanent Secretary and she hopes that their side will be heard as well.

The Minister is expected to receive the recommendations from the team involved in the investigations this afternoon.

She says the investigations are led by the Permanent Secretary and Director Secondary Education.
