In a significant move today, public school students across Antigua and Barbuda are without teachers as educators engage in industrial action following guidance from the Antigua and Barbuda Union of Teachers (ABUT).
Casroy Charles, the union President, confirmed the situation during a telephone interview with Shermain Bique-Charles earlier this morning.
Here we go again as usual a caring government who put workers first
During this time? I thought Gaston said yesterday he’s fighting for all people? So how are these people suffering for a earning? and in such a time as CXC and End of Year Exams and even Grade Six National Assessments. Shows the government don’t actually care about us.
This man is clearly a trouble maker. You shut down a whole school system for missing payments of a few teachers? Our children are already backward. You are directly wicked.
Here we go again. Had I known this was going on I would have kept my child home
I admire your resilience. A whole country will shut down for two teachers. Let the MOE stick to its commitment. That ministry is the sloppiest of them all. Everybody working slowwwwwwwwwwlllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Smh, Sad for the students to waste a day in this crunch time and the teacher to not be paid.
