Teachers protest again

Some parents of children at the Elliott Belgrave Primary School gathered this morning demanding answers as teachers again refused to enter the school buildings.

One parent said that she and others arrived to find teachers on the outside of the Gays, St Peter, institution insisting that their mould complaint had not been treated and they would not be entering the building.

Some of the pupils remained on the playing field or had chairs set up under the trees as teachers conducted classes.

Yesterday nine of the 12 teachers at the school stayed away citing environmental concerns with President of the Barbados Union of Teacher Sean Spencer confirming the teachers had been complaining prior to protesting. (AC)
