Managing director and board member John O’Connor said the parents who dragged the school to court intended to disrupt virtual classes.
“The false assertion that the petitioners represent parents at the school is discredited by the numerous messages of support the institution continues to receive from parents daily regarding its virtual learning programme,” Mr O’Connor said.
In a letter to parents, the board of directors said teachers are keen to work with students and that the school’s key goal has always been that no child is left behind in the learning process.
“The most immediate concern for the school is our desire to see the court reinstate live virtual learning for our younger students in year four and below, this has been achieved and lessons recommenced on Thursday, May 14 as per the normal timetable,” said Mr Rabih Saab, a director.
Considering the fact that the court had asked the school to reduce the fees by 50 per cent, the school has asked the parents to clear that amount by Monday, May 18, regardless of whether the opportunity for live virtual learning is accessed by parents.
