The Roman Catholic Church in Barbados has described the recent controversial Computer Science pre-test administered to hundreds of first-form students in five secondary schools as a “sneak attack” on the nation’s children.In a statement issued on Tuesday, Roman Catholic Bishop of Barbados The Most Rev Neil Scantlebury said the inclusion of certain questions for impressionable minds was “simply unconscionable”, particularly without parental consent.“And that’s what is so infuriating about this whole incident: the ‘sneak attack’ on our children.“The survey contained questions that were also tantamount to an invasion of privacy and is just the latest salvo in the onslaught against family life. Parents have a right to be outraged by an attempt to usurp their role. This is a clarion call for them to reassert their God-given authority to form their own children. Parents, remain vigilant,” the head of the local Roman Catholic Church advised.
