Gumbs rebuts Witu statement, Mgdw stop work order was lifted months ago

Minister of Education, Culture, Youth and Sport Melissa D. Gumbs recently issued a clarification in Great Bay, addressing public comments from the Windward Islands Teachers’ Union (WITU). The WITU’s remarks concerned classroom conditions at the Marie Genevieve de Weever Primary School. Minister Gumbs's statement rebutted the union’s position, asserting that a stop work order at the school had been lifted months ago. This clarification by the Ministry aims to counter the union's public statements regarding the school's operational status and conditions, highlighting differing accounts between the governmental body and the teachers' representative organization.
