Hundreds of primary and secondary school teachers are being denied a second term’s leave because of the failure of a High Court judge to deliver a written decision.That has been revealed by the president of the Barbados Union of Teachers (BUT) Rudy Lovell who said that 15 months after Madame Justice Shona Griffith overturned the decision by the Ministry of Education, Technological and Vocational Training (METVT) to stop allowing a second term’s leave, teachers are still waiting to benefit from the ruling.And he said the affected educators were frustrated.“Teachers continue to suffer burnout and even though there is a legal mechanism drafted to allow them to re-energise after the first 15 years and subsequently after every five years of service, that right has been taken away from those who wish to exercise it,” he said.
