A THIRD ENVIRONMENTAL study is to be done at the Combermere School, where teachers and students continued to fall ill up to the end of last term.

This was revealed by Minister of Education Ronald Jones, who was speaking to the media yesterday following the opening of a workshop on robotics at Erdiston Teachers’ Training College.

He said the current study started about two weeks ago with a team on site measuring air quality.

According to Jones, the assessment, which will be done before the start of the next school term, was to make sure that there were no ambient gases present in the environment and follows two previous assessments, the first done by domestic environmentalists and the second by the US Centres for Disease Control.
