With the strains of the union song Solidarity Forever still lingering in the air, teachers represented by the Barbados Secondary Teachers Union (BSTU) left the union’s Belleville headquarters around 10 this morning to march to the office of Chief Peronnel Officer Gail Atkins on Culloden Road, St Michael.
