Summary
As the new school year begins, Jamaica’s teachers’ association is sounding the alarm over crumbling classrooms, mold, broken furniture, and even tent-based learning — with western Jamaica hit hardest. They’re challenging how school closures and consolidations are managed, demanding respect for educators and a reimagined education system rooted in Jamaican values, bipartisan support, and innovative funding — from housing trust funds to international contributions — to rebuild schools battered by hurricanes and neglect. This isn’t just about infrastructure — it’s about restoring dignity, equity, and courage to our children’s future.
