Your message to the BLOGMASTER was sent

The following shared as presented. The blogmaster invites the management of the medical universities mentioned to refute the allegations by messaging the following LINKBlogmaster
Minister of Health Dr. Jerome Walcott, Senator

My name is Durga Prasad and I am a medical student studying at BRIDGETOWN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY, located in Barbados ย and VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE. The BRIDGETOWN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY is operated by DR. POTU PHANI BHUSHANA, DR. S.K.WASIM, MR. ISM NAGESWARA RAO, MR. SAI KRISHNA, MR. MILO PINCKNEY, and MR. RENU AGNIHORTI.ย  These men are all the Indian board of directors of the universities listed above.ย  I have been able to ascertain that all of these men are using fake passports and multiple ID cards and are operating multipleย  companies in Barbados, Guyana, United States, and India. ย ย In India they are using RUS EDUCATION PVT LTD and ISM FOCAL POINT PVT LTD as registered companies to collect funds into Indian accounts.ย  VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF BARBADOS is managed and operated by DR. WASIM who operates a company in India using RUS EDUCATION.ย  Both Bridgetown International University and Victoria University of Medicine are operated by the same group of people

This notice is intended to make you aware that both of these universities are enrolling students through fraudulent claims and then charging close to $100,000 USD for tuition.

We were informed during the recruitment process that the universities were located in the United States, which it is not.  Once enrolled, we were told that we had to begin the program from the first year even if we had credit that could be applied and then charged more than what we were originally told.  We have been placed in a stressful situation when asking for clarification on the validity of the degree we are paying for.  If we raise questions, students are being suspended from classes and to be able to return, we are asked to pay thousands of dollars more.  Students are ordered to leave the university grounds regardless of the time.  I know someone personally who was forced to leave at midnight.  The most discerning piece of information is that these universities are not accredited universities through CAAM-HP or ECFMG and as such, the degree we will earn will not be valid in India.

There are many other students like me that take admission to medical school with the intent to become medical doctors in the future to serve the people of India.  We are middle class families, and our parents are funding our education by selling homes, land and pledging gold.  The undue stress we and our families are put under is having horrible consequences.  It is with a heavy heart that I learned a fellow student and friend, HEMANTH SIVA RAMA KRISHNA committed suicide due to all of the stress he was consistently under due to the unlawful practices of Bridgetown University and its owners.   Because these owners are capable of managing the people with money, no one knows about the death of my friend who died yesterday in QEH Hospital, Barbados.

I am pleading with our government officials to take action against these people and businesses and launch an investigation to protect Indian nationals trying to better themselves to serve the people of India in the future. 

The majority of student here did not even qualify in the entrance examination of India to study medicine but the universities and โ€œrecruitersโ€ are giving false information on admission that our parents are trusting to be true to collect the $100,000 USD fees and by the time we find out differently, it is too late and we are working toward a degree from a non-accredited medical university for a degree that will not be valid anywhere, including India. 

I am requesting any and all action be taken against the universities and businesses listed below and to please order all enrolled students to our country.

1.ย ย ย ย  Bridgetown International Medical University, Barbados (NOT ACCREDITED BY CAAM-HP AND ECFMG)

2.     Victoria Medical University, Barbados (NOT ACCREDITED BY CAAM-HP AND ECFMG)

3.     American University of integrated Science, Barbados (NOT ACCREDITED BY CAAM-HP)

4.     Lincoln American University, Guyana (NOT ACCREDITED BY CAAMHP)

5.     ISM FOCAL POINT PVT LTD

6.     RUS EDUCATION PVT LTD

All these universities are operated by the same group of ownersย

    THERE IS RIGHT AND THERE IS WRONG
    A LOT OF WHAT HAPPENS AT OFFSHORE MEDICAL SCHOOLS IS WRONG

    TRUTHFUL ARTICLES ON MD HAVE CLOSED OR CRIPPLED A FEW BOGUS SCHOOLS

    AND IT IS A FACT THAT PRESSURE WAS PUT ON THE GUYANESE GOVERNMENT TO GET VALUEMD TO TAKE DOWN POSTS THEREON ABOUT THE GROUP OF BOGUS SCHOOLS IN GUYANA

    I KNOW THAT NONE OF YOU HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY OFFSHORE SCHOOL

    NOR DO YOU KNOW OF A CERTAIN PARTICULAR DIFFICULTY THAT THEY ALL HAVE –EXCEPT FOR THE FEW THAT ARE WELL ESTABLISHED

    BUT I AM ENJOYING THE MIRTH

    I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN MEDICINE AND MEDICAL EDUCATION NOW FOR 50 YEARS
    BUT I AM ALWAYS WILLING TO LEARN FROM THE FOLK ON BU WHO KNOW EVATING BOUT EVATING

    I guess now when anyone hears of offshore schools in Barbados, or anywhere in the region, they will immediately cross them off their attendance list. The scandal is extremely ugly and spreading like wildfire…. no one wants this for their children and grandchildren.

    The India Embassy office in Barbados, which is located on the 1st. Floor, Sandy Crest Medical Clinic, Sunset Crest, Holetown, St. James, is an office of communication between India Government and Barbados.

    If medical students were experiencing such problems with the university in question, since its establishment in 2016, why hasnโ€™t any Indian student made the Embassy aware of his/her grievances and sought representation therefrom on their behalf, to lobby the Barbados government to investigate the allegations?

    Or, on their return to India, ask the Indian government, through its embassy in Barbados, not only to query allegations, but to WARN prospective students against enrolling in those universities?


  7. I disagree with your comments. I can give Indian students’ parents’ numbers and their chat screenshots .they do recruit Indian students. Dr. Aghinihotri and mr Pinckney are big frauds .kindly google them on the history of the Caribbean and till now how many places they have changed their college.
    running a medical school named AUIS (AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE, Barbados) so called this university is not accredited by CAAM-HP. Accreditation is denayed two times .this information you can check the list of the CAAM-HP accredited universities list .cant fooled Barbados citizens, the USA, and Canadian citizens by using colour full advertisements to grab international students. look AUIS (AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE)the US and Canadian citizens by using colour full advertisements to grab international students. take a good medical school in Barbados.UWI (UNIVERSITY OF WEST INDES)The standards of laboratories, library, teaching rooms, and faculty, according to CAAM HP STANDARDS.

    I still l I m having a million dollars in question Dr.RENUAGHINIHOTRI AND Mr.MILO PINCKNEY are claiming they are the false marking to grab students from USA and Canada. but
    they are claiming that they are running an accredited medical school.

    kindly check inside and send press reports to click pictures of AUIS(AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE)
    1. how many bathrooms they are having for 150 medical students (150 students they are strong the campus of that 5-bedroom house present)
    2. Do a they have histology laboratory or
    3 Do they have a microbiology lab
    4.Do they have an anatomy lab
    5. Do they have a pathology lab
    6.Do they have a physiology lab
    7. Do they have a pharmacology lab
    8. Do they have a proper anatomy lab
    9. Do they have a simulation la ab
    10. Do they have computer lab according to student ratio
    11.Do they have microscopes to teach students
    12. Do they have student and faculty ratio bathrooms
    13.Do they have a proper library with textbooks according to the student ratio
    14.Do they have a student recreation area

    AUIS ,all is they have 5 bedrooms with two bath house that was modified to the great medical school in Barbados.

    maybe Barbados people can still fool others by using catchy international names for medical schools and maintain local political people.

    need truth why CAAM-HP denied because they did not have facilities and standards to maintain medical school

    DR. RENUAGHINIHOTRI AND Mr.MILO PINCKNE DIRECTORS OF AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE )just one mile away from UWI(UNIVERSITY OF WEST INDES)how this school standards and laboratories and facilities. or the Great private school of ROSS MEDICAL UNIVERSITY

    DR. RENU AGHINIHOTRI AND Mr.MILO PINCKNE DIRECTORS OF AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE ) must have some shame at least before fooling students and public

  8. @Artax

    You should see the blogmasterโ€™s first comment questioning due diligence etc by prospective students. This would extend to existing students as well. There is always more to a story like this one.


  9. Waru
    Disagree. Market forces will not allow such rationality, pun intended.

    Meaning, relatively high wages, culturally bound expectations, elements of perceived classism, the allure of being a doctor etc will continue to drive this industrial sector which matches ground feeders with a multitude of people unable to make the first cut.


  10. 2 + 2 =4
    2 +2 = 5

    Whoโ€™s counting?
    What are being counted?
    When did the count take place?

    Separately

    How many things in science thought right years ago are seen as wrong today?

    How many practices seen as right today will be deemed wrong tomorrow?

    Are rights only right when in ignorance there is general acceptance and wrongs only wrong when not generally accepted?

    “Disagree. Market forces will not allow such rationality, pun intended.”

    Yep…looking at it from that angle, big pharma Dr. Agents too love their false stature…hence the reason many are calling for life in prison for the doctors who did all the dirty work with such panache and lied like it was going out of style……some are calling for executions for that…they played themselves in their uppity arrogance way too much…

    But medical corporate will find ways around going out of existence or downsizing on paper pile ups…that’s what legal teams are paid top bucks for..to circumvent.


  12. WHY DONT YOU JOKERS RESEARCH THE HISTORY OF MEDICAL EDUCATION IN THE WESTINDIES AND THE HISTORY OF OFFSHORE MEDICAL SCHOOLS.

    HOW DID IT ALL START?
    FROM WHENCE DID THE FIRST SET OF STUDENTS COME? AND WHY?

    /WHEN AND FOR HOW LONG HAS INDIANS BEEN TARGETED BY THESE SCHOOLS, AND WHY?

    WHY ORIGINALLY WERE THE UWI CAMPUS ISLANDS NOT INVOLVED?

    WHAT IF ANY ARE THE BENEFITS OF SUCH A SCHOOL TO AN ISLAND?
    WHAT ARE THE DISADVANTAGES AND WHY?

    WHICH ISLANDS WERE INITIALLY INVOLVED, AND WHY?

    WHEN AND HOW DID THE INDIAN OWNERS GOT INVOLVED?

    WHO WERE THEY?

    WHICH SCHOOLS DID (DO) THEY OWN?

    WHY IS ST GEORGES SCHOOL IN GRENADA AND NOT IN ANTIGUA?

    WHICH WAS THE FIRST CAMPUS ISLAND TO HAVE A SCHOOL AND WHAT WAS ITS CONNECTION WITH THIS SCHOOL AND THE GUYANESE DR WHO RUNS THE SCHEMES THERE?

    THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE QUESTIONS YOU MUST ASK?

    FOR HOW LONG HAVE POOR USMLE RESULTS BEEN OBTAINED BY MANY OF THESE SCHOOLS, AND WHICH SCHOOLS?

    HOW MANY STUDENTS ARE NEEDED FOR A SCHOOL TO BREAK EVEN?

    COME ON FELLOWS GIVEME SOME JOKES.

    I SYMPATHIZE WITH THE STUDENT (S) THEY DO REALLY GET A BAD BREAK IN MANY OF THE SCHOOLS

    AND MR DANIELS CAN YOU REFUTE ANYTHING THAT MEDICO SAID ABOUT AUIS?


  13. merely go to the AUIS website, and find the promoted link of Mr.Pinckney talking to students.

    Dear Docteur, your queries are equivalent to someone like Louganis (or better yet, Leah Martindale) diving off the highest board to an Olympic medal: the obvious ‘deep dive’ in short!๐Ÿฅณ

    … but let’s just jump to the bottom of the pool: the growth or indeed the development of these ‘off-shore medical schools’ is simply a function of class and societal ‘prejudice’, as alluded to above!!! … No need to do any deep-dive as obviously these medical schools could not proliferate unless 1) there was a need (or want); the demand… 2) there were the venture capitalists ready to supply those in need… and 3) it was determined that the other system of producing doctors was ‘prejudicial’ and ‘discriminatory’ !!!

    Getting right down to the nitty-gritty I would ask whether doctors who start their education at this type of institution have been shown to be more EXPOSED to malpractice charges than those who proceed along the more standard university path!!!

    Surely the brand name colleges explore that data !!๐Ÿ˜Ž

    As the blogmaster noted and as was highlighted before this fundamental issue about devious, unscrupulous or even illegal practices is par for course – as far as I am concerned…. as it completely BOGGLES my mind that students would embark on a career educational path that extends to at least TEN YEARS or so before being properly qualified and not ensure a careful review of the school they are attending. MADNESS!!!

    Of course, maybe some of these students do not intend to become full fledged doctors but rather in some other area of the medical profession … regardless they still need to have ‘accredited credentials’.

    So yeah … how and why medi-schools have developed is a wonderful treatise but that does not change the fundamental matter of demand and supply… because as the blogger @Pach alluded to above: this is merely another step in the industrial process of fitting a peg to a hole… at a much higher wage rate… so long will it continue!!!

  19. Again today, in Barbados Today, we see fake professor Persaud, another Indian gangster, who with Mia Mottley inveigled successive governments to invest 140 million dollars into the ill-fated white elephant formerly known as Paradise.

    Persaud after more than 15 years of NIS money invested is still using governmental power to try to make good of a such a project. This represents the classical definition of a vicious form of financialization under neoliberal capitalism where public assets are transfered to private ownership or control.

    This is indeed a dangerous setting. In a fair world, fresh minds, new eyes, should be in place to make dispassionate judgements in the interests of the people of Barbados.

    Not a man primarily motivated by personal redemption and interests, as handed state power by his faithful friend and current prime minister Mia Mottley, the dictator.

    Persaud does not even pretend to be a graduate of one of the fake Indian universities. His sole claim to a professorship is the conduct of a few seminars of no particular merit, about financial services. An 11-plus boy could have so done.

    It continues to boggle the mind why Persaud should be given all these chances to make good. When all others must face the consequences of their mismanagement. That he’s had unhindered access to the public finances of the country all this time continues to be concerning.

    We told David Thompson that Parris was going to be his bane. And death intervened. Now, we tell Mia Mottley that Persaud shall be the death of her and this country.

    Bajan politicians toooo love their koolie men!

  22. MEDICO

    re Focus on How to get accreditation, CAAM-HP
    WHY DO YOU HARP SO MUCH ABOUT CAAM-HP?
    HOW OLD IS CAAM-P OR CAAM-C?
    WHY DOES IT EXIST?

    AROUND THE END OF 2003 THE BRITISH MEDICAL COUNCIL STOPPED AUTOMATICALLY REGISTERING DRS WHO HAD GRADUATED FROM MEDICAL SCHOOLS IN THE BRITISH COMMONWEALTH WHICH OF COURSE HAD THE SAME CURRICULUM AND PROCESSSES TO OBTAIN THE MBBS DEGREE

    THAT MEANT THAT UWI NEEDED TO HAVE A WAY TO BE ACREEDITED
    THAT IS THE MAIN REASON FOR CAAM-P

    I KNOW ONE IDIOT WHO WAS OR IS GOING AROUND WORKING FOR THAT ORGANIZATION. HE WAS DEAN FIGURE HEAD AT AAIMS UNTIL I POSTED A LETTER HE HAD SENT TO ME WHEN I TAUGHT THERE THAT CLEARLY INDICATED THAT HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT HE WAS DOING

    CAMPUS INFRASTRUCTURE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH QUALITY OF EDUCATION NOR DOES LABS

    BECAUSE OF THE EXPONENTIAL INCREASE IN INFORMATION THAT MEDICAL STUDENTS NOW HAVE TO ASSIMILATE LAB SESSIONS HAVE BEEN SCALED BACK SIGNIFICANTLY

    THE IMAGES NOW AVAILABLE TO TEACH HISTOLOGY MICROBIOLOGY HISTOLOGY AND OTHER BASIC MEDICAL SCIENCES ARE SUBLIME AND HAVE REDUCED THE NEED FOR MANY OF THE TIME WASTING LAB SESSIONS OF 50 YEARS AGO.

    WE NOW HAVE SIMULATORS AND MODELS THAT ARE BEING USED IN ANATOMY CLASS ROOMS

    WHAT IS NEEDED ARE WISE EXPERIENCED TEACHERS WHO CAN PRESENT TO STUDENTS FIRST OF ALL WITH THE INFO THEY NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE BASIC MEDICAL SCIENCE THAT THEY TEACH THAT WILL ENABLE THEM TO FUNCTION.

    THERE OUGHT ALSO TO BE CLASSES THAT ARE BASED ON TEACHING FROM A BASIS OF SYMPTOMS AND NOT ONLY BY SYSTEMS OR TEACHING ABOUT DISEASE PER SE

    USING A TEXT SUCH AS FRENCH’S INDEX OF THE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF MEDICINE…………….I THINK THERE IS ONE FOR SURGERY TOO

    PATIENTS PRESENT WITH SYMPTOMS

    WATCH SOME IDIOT TRY TO CONTRADICT ME NOW

    I HAVE MET SOME AMAZING MEN AND WOMEN WHO TAUGHT THEIR BASIC SCIENCE WITH GREAT APLOMB IN THE OFFSHORE SCHOOLS IN WHICH I TAUGHT

    AND ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS OF THE BASIC SCIENCES THAT I KNOW IS A PERSON WHO WAS IN THE VERY FIRST CLASS AT ROSS IN 1978, WHEN THEY WOULD CONVENE CLASSES IN THAT LITTLE GUEST HOUSE THAT HURRICANE DAVID DEMOLISHED IN 79

    5 Prana Vayus in Moving Meditation

    When Science and Ancient Wisdom Tradition converge it is all about the Spirit

    In the yoga tradition, life force, or prana, is often categorized into different vayus. Vayu means โ€œwindโ€ or โ€œair,โ€ with each prana vayu described as a different way that prana moves through the body. The tradition holds that when these vayus are functioning optimally, they help the mind improve its function and allows us to realize our greatest potential.

    Let’s look at the five main vayus and how they can help us in both our practice and our daily lives.

    The yoga tradition describes five movements or functions of prana known as the vayus (literally โ€œwindsโ€)โ€”prana vayu (not to be confused with the undivided master prana), apana vayu, samana vayu, udana vayu, and vyana vayu. These five vayus govern different areas of the body and different physical and subtle activities.

    Your thoughts??? Am I reading too much into the voice?


  26. GP has been contributing on this topic for quite some time.
    The stories when they do appear support the various statements that he made.

    It should not be surprising that students would seek various routes to become a doctors in the US. Many have probably done a risk benefit assessment and believe the benefits outweigh the risk. The fact that some have emerged form these schools and found a place in the US probably encourages many.

    It would also be difficult to comment on the interaction of these students with the Indian government, their colleagues or prospective students.

    Unable to contribute, but is an interesting topic.


  27. Because they will only post their cultural programmes in socialmedia for admissions and publicity.They wont worry about students problem they just want money and publity. Gaana priya is one of the very talented woman in the world that she will do partiality in students who pay fees at correct she will only look on their problems and encourage them only. And now they gave money to the student parents and said him that dont tell to socialmedia that he did suicide just say he died due to heartache.Great university in this world.

    People everywhere are appalled at the elevated levels of self-hating divisiveness. Even those who previously doubted when told that’s what it really is, are now seeing and understanding better…and are rightfully angry they were blinded by lies, deceit and sleight of hand.

    Given historical experiences, to reduce your people to such degrees of disheartening distress is the work of self-absorbed cowards…who believe they are entitled to accolades, rewards, and recognition for traitor roles.


  35. The fact that news of this type first breaks on BU shows that some still consider BU as a place o air issues of concern.
    The blogmaster is a modest man with a number of ‘critics”., but I hope he finds some joy in the role the site plays.

  37. Unfortunately, David, I do not know who was the consultant.


  38. The above comment was meant for the BRA thread.


  39. I read that Suriname is concerned about the increasing number of Indians and Pakistanis entering the island, and is implementing certain measures to stop the influx.


  40. Medical students commenting here are ex BIU students. THey lefted biu long ago to join Washington University of BeLLiZE. Students who only complete their first year here given admission dorectly into 3rd yr in that university and went on to Nepal to do their rotations by Wrotting exams in India home copying with fake transcripts and jumped 1yr of medical school now illegally taking blood from patients killing them in nepale
    medical schools like this should be complained for fraud education and should be taking down


  41. THEO
    IT IS SAD THAT THIS STUDENT SHOULD HAVE FELT SO DISTRESSED DISAP[OINTED AND DISCONSOLATE THAT HE FELT THAT TAKING HIS LIFE WAS HIS ONLY WAY OUT

    IT IS SADDER FOR IT TO HAPPEN IN BARBADOS, AND CONNECTED TO ONE OF THE BOGUS SCHOOLS CONVENED HERE/

    THERE WAS NO NEED TO HAVE THESE BOGUS SCHOOLS IN OUR ISLAND

    WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE POLITICAL JESTERS ALLOWED THESE SCHOOLS AS THEY SEEK LONG TERM TOURISTS TO BOOST THE ECONOMY

    HOWEVER, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COIN THESE SCHOOLS DEFINITELY HAVE A MOST ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE POOR LOCAL CITIZENS ESPECIALLY, IN A VERY SHORT TIME. THAT IS WHAT I HAVE WITNESSED, IN MY DEALINGS WITH THESE SCHOOLS.

    IT WAS EVIL ON MIA’S PART TO STEAL ROSS SCHOOL FROM THE DOMINCANS, AFTER THEY DID THEIR BEST TO ACCOMODATE THE PARASITES IN THIER COUNTRY SINCE 1978.

    IT IS A PITY THAT WHEN EVER A TOPIC IS PRESENTED ON BU, A SET OF MORONS DONT HAVE ANY DISCIPLINE TO SHUT THIER RECTUM-ESQUE NON BRAINS, SINCE THEY HAVE NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO ADD, EXCEPT TO TRY TO ATTACK CONTRIBUTORS WHO HAVE MUCH TO SHARE.

    I SPENT MANY HOURS ON THE NOW DISCONTINUED “GUIDE TO FOREIGN MEDICAL SCHOOLS” AND VALUE MD WHICH EMERGED THEREFROM IN FEBRUARY 2003.

    VALUE MD NO LONGER REALLY EXISTS IN HIS FORMER ORIGINAL SELF WHEN IT WAS INFORMATIVE, WITH GOOD CONCERNED STUDENTS CONTRIBUTING.

    WITH THE RAPID SPRINGING UP OF MORE AND MORE SCHO0LS IN THE LAST 15-20 YEARS, HELL BENT ON MONEY MAKING RATHER THAN MEDICAL EDUCATION, IT SEEMS THAT THEIR COMPETITION HAS CORRECTLY OPINED THAT WEALTHY INSCRUPULOUS OWNERS HAVE EXERTED IMMENSE CONTROL CONCERNING WHAT CAN BE SAID ABOUT THEIR SCHOOLS BY USING FACEBOOK WHEREBY THEIR CHOSEN CHEERLEADERS ALONE CAN OPINE


  42. POLICE INVESTIGATING REPORTED DEATH OF MEDICAL STUDENT

    Police Investigating Reported Death of Medical Student

    The police confirm that they are investigating the reported death of a student of a medical university located in Barbados.

    However, the police say an autopsy will have to be conducted to determine the cause of death including if it was suicide.

    Starcom Network News had sought clarification from the police after an article was published on an online blog alleging that a student had died at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

    Police Public Relations Officer, Inspector Rodney Inniss, would only say the matter is being investigated and the cause of any such death would need to be confirmed by an autopsy.


  43. @Dr. Ramona Archer-Bradshaw

    Is it fair to expect that now you have been made aware of the letter you will start an investigation? One cannot make this stuff up.

    Cops checking into studentโ€™s death

    Police are investigating the death of a 22-yearold student of the Bridgetown International University (BIU), an international medical school.
    Photos and videos circulating this week showed Hemanth Siva Rama Krishna in distress at the schoolโ€™s living quarters in Long Bay, St Philip, on Sunday and being attended by fellow students. Others showed him being wheeled into the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and then lying dead on a bed with several tubes in his body.
    Police communications and public affairs officer, Inspector Rodney Inniss, said lawmen were investigating and will await a postmortem to determine how Krishna died.
    However, several students who contacted the Weekend Nation said they and Krishna were concerned about certain things about the school in terms of accreditation.
    โ€œHe questioned management about the accreditation of the school and the amount of money his parents were paying for the programme,โ€ a student said.
    The students also expressed
    concern about the time an ambulance was summoned for Krishna, saying it was over an hour.
    They also said they had written to the Indian government and United States officials about the matter, but had not asked the Government of Barbados for help because they were afraid.
    When a Nation team visited the BIUโ€™s campus in Chelsea Road, St Michael, it was informed that no senior personnel were available to speak.
    A letter which has been circulated by a student outlining several alleged issues at the school was forwarded to Chief Education Officer Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw but she told the Weekend Nation she was not aware of the matter. Asked if the Ministry of Education will investigate the allegations contained in the letter, she said: โ€œWe cannot investigate something which we are not aware of.โ€
    The school was opened in 2019, with former Minister of Education Ronald Jones as the vice-chancellor. Reports indicate that Jones is no longer associated with the institution. (MB)

    Shut ’em down

    What is the legal recourse against rogue cowboy education providers in Barbados. Can there be Class Action Suits? How long will the cases take for dispute resolution settlements?

    I have taken a liken to Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw

    On the Children’s survey
    โ€œIn terms of being naรฏve, I would say no! I would like you and the public to understand that the IDB and the Ministry of Education have a longstanding relationship. Weโ€™ve been working together for a very long time; trust had been built up. Weโ€™ve never had a situation such as this one before to be the best of my knowledge and what really happened here was as surprising to me as it was to the parents who recognised that something was wrong,โ€ Archer-Bradshaw said

    On teachers being threatened
    The ministry has not been made aware of this by the union so what I can say is that I donโ€™t know of it being a widespread issue affecting teachers.
    โ€œI am talking about the union has not raised it as an issue. Usually, the union would raise issues concerning teachers and we have been working to collaboratively problem solve, but this issue with regard to teachers being threatened by parents has never been raised by the union, not at least for the time that I have been here,โ€ Dr Archer-Bradshaw said.

    On issues at these medical schools
    A letter which has been circulated by a student outlining several alleged issues at the school was forwarded to Chief Education Officer Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw but she told the Weekend Nation she was not aware of the matter. Asked if the Ministry of Education will investigate the allegations contained in the letter, she said: โ€œWe cannot investigate something which we are not aware of.โ€

    My Prediction on the next issue involving the Min of ED
    I was not aware of the vacation issue. No one informed me that summer vacation had started or that children were entitled to summer vacation


  46. @Not Aware
    Are parliamentarians in the Caribbean all receiving the same training? Are they told that “not aware”, “not my job or responsibility” is an answer to serious questions.

    A few days ago I saw an article where a minister in T&T was avoiding/denying any responsibility and throwing blame on others.
