The Barbados Union of Teachers (BUT) is demanding answers about the fate of Lawrence T Gay Memorial Primary School which has been plagued with environmental issues for years.On Monday, BUT president Rudy Lovell told Barbados TODAY that teachers were being kept out of the loop and wanted to know what was the plan for the Spooner’s Hill, St Michael school since the new school term begins in the next few weeks.Lovell said the union was having its first consultation with the Ministry of Education on Monday night and this was one of the main concerns to be raised.“We are meeting with the ministry tonight and it is definitely one of the issues I am going to bring up; it is high on my agenda. It is a major concern given the fact that these problems still persist and have been persisting for the last six or so years,” he said. “Somebody needs to find out what is going on so that the lives of both teachers and students on the compound can be improved.”
