The Court of Ap­peal will have to weigh in on a move by the Teach­ing Ser­vice Com­mis­sion (TSC) to in­tro­duce a new pro­ce­dure for the re­cruit­ment of teach­ers for de­nom­i­na­tion­al pri­ma­ry schools.

In mid-March, High Court Judge West­min James dis­missed a law­suit from the Pres­by­ter­ian Church of T&T (PCTT) and the Pres­by­ter­ian Pri­ma­ry Schools’ Board of Ed­u­ca­tion (PPS­BE) chal­leng­ing the pol­i­cy.

Speak­ing with Guardian Me­dia on Wednes­day, PPS­BE chair­man Vick­ram Ram­lal con­firmed that the or­gan­i­sa­tion had filed an ap­peal chal­leng­ing Jus­tice James’ de­ci­sion in the case.
