Opposition Spokesperson Assesses Latest Polls

Opposition Spokesperson on Education, Dr. Angella Brown Burke says education must be a priority area of the Government to swiftly usher the nation’s children back into physical classrooms. This as she notes the polls have corroborated the claims of the Opposition that online learning has proven ineffective to date locally.

Pointing to the polls, Dr. Angella Brown Burke says online learning has again been featured as an ineffective tool or alternative to face-to-face classes. Brown-Burke says parents have been voiced their concerns that online learning has not been effective for the past 18 months. She notes that the best course of action is to have students back in the physical classroom and added that the Ministry of Education has been ignoring this important fact.

Meanwhile, she also responded to critics of PNP President and Opposition leader, Mark Golding’s leadership in the polls, adding the PNP is like a broken vehicle that Golding is currently working on. She notes that the while she pays attention to the polls she also analyses them to see what can be done or what can be improved. The Opposition Spokesperson on Education says those are not attractive things to critics and onlookers.
