CLASS 3 AND 4 PUPILS of Blackman and Gollop Primary School will engage in online classes on Wednesday, May 5.
That was announced tonight by Acting Chief Education Officer Joy Adamson during a Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) meeting via Zoom.
President of the PTA, Tricia Augustine, had expressed concerns about the state of the school after the executive discovered furniture remained in the foyer, and students and teachers had to clean the Staple Grove, Christ Church plant themselves.
Adamson said intensive cleaning would be conducted today by the Barbados Defence Force, an additional contractor and members of the PTA, at the end of which a decision would be made on the resumption of face-to-face classes.
