A parent and journalist at Westminster School in Bahria Town Phase 7, Rawalpindi, has shared an emotional account of the concerns surrounding the school’s safety arrangements. The parent said the situation was deeply troubling and that they could not sleep throughout the night, eventually deciding not to send their child to school.
The parent questioned whether a child should continue attending a school if there are concerns about its safety, saying that every child deserves a secure environment. The remarks came as parents met with school representatives to discuss their concerns and seek answers regarding child safety and security measures.
The discussions have also focused on the school’s CCTV surveillance system, including concerns about possible blind spots. According to the journalist parent, another camera was used to closely examine a reported blind spot in the CCTV coverage, and the findings are now available.
The issue has drawn further attention to the importance of effective CCTV monitoring, proper security arrangements and the responsibility of educational institutions to ensure a safe environment for children. Parents are seeking clarity about the reported incident, the investigation and the measures being taken to strengthen safety at the school.
