Education Minister Fayval Williams has announced that counseling will be provided for students and staff at Campion College in St Andrew following Tuesday's incident which claimed the life of a student at the institution.
 
The student, Rashad Richards, was reportedly playing on the field, sometime after 3:00 p.m., in the afternoon, when the goal post, on which he was swinging,  fell on him. 
 
The student was badly injured in his head and was rushed to hospital, where he was pronounced dead. 
 
Mrs Williams expressed sadness about his death.
 
Three students died in separate, similar incidents in 2011 in Westmoreland, St Andrew, and St Ann.
