Education Minister Dr Michael Dowlath on Tuesday met with the Association of Denominational Boards of Education (ADBE), just days after the association’s call for talks was highlighted in the media.
ADBE chairperson Sharon Mangroo told Guardian Media the meeting was “very productive.” She said the association had originally been scheduled to meet with the ministry’s Permanent Secretary, but was pleasantly surprised that Dowlath attended instead.
One of the main issues discussed was the shortage of teachers at schools under the association’s purview. Mangroo said the ADBE agreed to partner with the Ministry of Education to address staffing gaps.
