The research took place on May 6 and 7 and involved interviews and surveys with students, members of the Care team and a Milton Peters College (MPC) teacher.

MPC has announced that it will be receiving the results of the research in June. These results will be used for further internal research and the development of a strategy to prevent fear of failure among students at the school.

The collaboration between University of Utrecht and Foundation for the Advancement of Secondary Education Windward Islands SVOBE schools has been ongoing for years. University students are sent to St. Maarten each year to conduct educational research that benefits high school students on the island.
