Minister of Education Santia Bradshaw has given the greenlight for the phased rollout of more face-to-face classes to continue from Tuesday, May 11.
Speaking during Sunday’s live COVID-19 update, Bradshaw said that after having several discussions with principals of nursery, primary, secondary, and special needs schools over the last several days, and with additional cleaning of ash being completed at more schools, more face-to-face classes will commence.
“At present we have approximately 26 small primary schools, which as of today can take in all of their students on Tuesday the 11th. We also have four of our large schools; George Lamming, Arthur Smith, Hilda Skeene, and St Stephen Primary, which are also in the position to take all of their students using a phased approach.

A farming project at the Ignatius Byer Primary School has received a major boost from ARC Irrigation.
Earlier this month, officials from the company paid a visit to the Lowlands, St Lucy Primary School to donate a drip irrigation line inclusive of shutoff valves as well as a filtration system.
The generous gesture is intended to significantly enhance the school’s agricultural science programme, which includes the cultivation of lettuce, sweet potatoes, cassava and various seasonings.
Managing Director Rodney Reader spearheaded the donation and installation of the equipment that occurred on December 3.
