Schools Struggle as Resources Lag | Trinidad and Tobago News

Teachers are back in classrooms, but Trinidad and Tobago’s education system is in crisis — with schools crumbling, teachers unpaid, and families struggling to afford basics. TTUTA warns the system can’t function without urgent fixes to repairs, book grants, and back pay. The Ministry promises weekend work to catch up, while parents and NPTA leaders hope for at least safe, stable learning environments. Security remains a concern after police were stationed in 51 schools — with NPTA set to review their impact. And as costs soar for uniforms and supplies, many families fear kids will miss out on education entirely. TTUTA is demanding immediate, transparent action — or risk letting students fall through the cracks. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
