The Ministry of Education may be in for a double-pronged attack from the Barbados Secondary Teachers’ Union (BSTU) soon.
She did not give any details, but president of the BSTU, Mary Redman, sounded that warning in relation to ongoing cases at the St Leonard’s Boys’ School and the St Michael School at the union’s activity for Teachers’ Professional Day held at Solidarity House yesterday morning.
In both cases the union is claiming unfair dismissal of its members.
The BSTU, along with National Union of Public Workers (NUPW), is representing the clerk/typist at St Leonard’s, who was sent home at the end of August. Redman told the meeting that the council of the NUPW on Tuesday agreed that the NUPW should take “whatever action is necessary in support of its member”. (YB)
