It was smooth sailing for at least four primary schools yesterday at the start of the phased resumption of face-to-face classes.

Last week Monday the older students at primary and secondary schools across the island returned to their respective schools.

Last Sunday during a televised press conference, Minister of Education Santia Bradshaw announced there would be a phased return to classes starting from yesterday.

The principals of St Margaret’s Primary, St Bartholomew Primary, St Martin’s-Mangrove Primary and Reynold Weekes Primary reported it was a fairly smooth transition back to the classroom.
