The Ministry of Educational Transformation has announced that all Government schools and nurseries will reopen on Tuesday.

According to the Ministry, the announcement follows consultations with the Barbados Meteorological Services regarding forecasted weather conditions.

Officials cautioned that some areas of the island may continue to experience rainfall, and certain communities remain particularly vulnerable due to recent flooding.

Parents and guardians are urged to exercise discretion when deciding whether it is safe for children to attend school under current circumstances.

The Ministry also encouraged families to maintain communication with schools so that students can stay up to date with assignments if attendance is affected.

Authorities stressed that maintaining student safety remains a priority while ensuring continuity in education.

In a statement, the Ministry expressed hope for a swift recovery for those most impacted and looked forward to welcoming students and teachers back to classrooms across Barbados.
