With just two weeks remaining before the new academic year begins on September 8, the Opposition is questioning the Government over what it calls a delay in disbursing the promised School Supplies and Book Grant.
However, the Government is assuring parents will receive the grants well before the new school year gets going.
Speaking to Guardian Media yesterday, former education minister Dr Nyan Gadsby-Dolly said as the Member of Parliament for St Ann’s East, she has received many queries about the book grants and even laptops. She pointed to several appeals on social media but said there had been no response from the Education Ministry.
