Apr 23, 2021 Elena Smith And so there you heard the unions say that they are not backing down from their industrial actions. The B.N.T.U. has informed the Ministry of Education that teachers will go on strike on Monday. It is not clear for how long they will not be teaching but they say that they are prepared to go as long as is necessary. The last time teachers went on strike for ten days under the U.D.P. government back in and this time around President Elena Smith says that they are just as serious. You’ll recall that some classrooms only recently reopened for in-person learning. And while most schools are still doing online and information packages for learning, Smith says that their actions will still carry weight.
