Schools have been instructed to prepare for online classes for the remainder of the week if drivers at the Transport Board continue to stay off the job.

A circular signed by Chief Education Officer Dr Ramona Archer-Bradshaw, indicated this would be the contingency plan for all public nursery, primary, secondary and special schools.

Staff at the Transport Board staged a work stoppage on Monday leaving thousands of commuters stranded. They were meeting with representatives of their unions and management. (SAT)
