Education Minister Dr Michael Dowlath says all schools will be opened at the start of the new term on Monday.

Noting that repairs are still being undertaken at some schools, Dowlath said this will not stop the students from beginning the school term.

“In the eight educational districts, seven in Trinidad and in Tobago, we are expecting that all schools will be open,” Dowlath told reporters following his tour of Parvati Girls’ Hindu College, Debe, yesterday.
