Hot Classrooms Demand Action | Jamaica News

Jamaica’s top teacher union leader is demanding Prime Minister Andrew Holness turn his nostalgic tales of hot classrooms into real action—because decades later, students still endure sweltering conditions or makeshift spaces due to hurricane damage. While Holness joked about tree-shaded classrooms being “closer to nature,” educator LaSonja Harrison sees his recollection as proof that systemic neglect persists. She insists the PM’s memories validate what teachers have warned about for years: crumbling infrastructure and unbearable heat are sabotaging education. With thousands of students affected, it’s time to move beyond reflection and deliver tangible fixes—for a future where learning isn’t compromised by climate or condition.
