A learner who commits a Category 2 Type 11 offence may have to be interrogated by a law enforcement officer.

Before a law enforcement officer interrogates a learner, his/her parents must be notified.

The learner must be interrogated in the presence of his/her parents/guardian and the Head Teacher.

The interrogation must be conducted on the school premises.

Whenever this kind of interrogation has been done, it must be recorded in the Log Book and a report forwarded promptly to the Head of Department of Education.
