Schools Set to Open Despite Repairs | Trinidad and Tobago News

Education Minister Dr. Michael Dowlath confirms all schools will reopen Monday, as MTS tackles repairs across 350 aging facilities—many over 50 years old and neglected since 2016. With 100 projects already completed, focus remains on critical systems like water, power, and sanitation, even as some areas stay boarded off. The minister defends the delayed rollout, citing complex approvals, while assuring no class disruptions. At Parvati Girls’ College, demolition and refurbishment are nearing finish; elsewhere, new temporary setups like at St. Paul’s accommodate shifting student needs. The ministry also restructures support staff contracts and welcomes migrant students meeting registration rules—all to ensure safe, functional learning environments nationwide.
