IT APPEARS AS THOUGH there will be no disruption of school, for this week at least.
Following a near five-hour meeting of the executive of the Barbados Union of Teachers yesterday evening, a decision was taken to hold a joint meeting with the teachers at Parkinson Memorial and Alma Parris schools sometime next week to determine a course of action.
President Pedro Shepherd said he could not divulge any further details from the meeting or future plans.
He said he read correspondence from both the Personnel Administration Division (PAD) and the Ministry of Education sometime yesterday, however.
The letter from the PAD reportedly guaranteed a response within the allotted six-week time-frame, while the one from the Ministry said the matters at the two schools were still being investigated. (YB)
