The Barbados Government is focusing on revitalizing the Barbados Cadet Corps to address student indiscipline and deviance. Colonel Edward Brathwaite, a former Cadet Corps commandant, advocates for integrating the Corps into the school system and modernizing its approach with digital tools and educational technologies.
By combining traditional discipline training with contemporary methods, the goal is to enhance the Corps’ effectiveness in guiding students and improving behavioral outcomes. This strategic modernization aims to make the Cadet Corps more relevant and impactful for today’s youth in Barbados while addressing broader educational and vocational needs.
