Opposition Spokesperson on Education, Damion Crawford, responded to the data shared by the Ministry of Education during a recent post-cabinet briefing. While Crawford acknowledges that he cannot directly challenge the numbers provided by the Minister, he maintains his belief that she is misguided regarding the imminent crisis that people are discussing.

Despite Williams insisting that the strategies implemented last year to help curve vacancies should be adopted for the new term, Crawford says they were not effective. Watch the report:
