In light of this, the established shift system between the Washington Archibald High School and Basseterre High School will continue into the new term. We recognize that this arrangement has its short comings but encourage all stakeholders to exhibit maximum patience and to remain committed to ensuring that our students’ and teachers’ interests are given top priority at all times. The Principals and Deputy Principals of both the Washington Archibald High School and Basseterre High School have collaborated to address past issues and will continue to work with the Ministry to resolve any concerns in the future.
The Ministry of Education’s main aim is have all the students of both schools in school all day. Therefore, we pledge to work assiduously with the Health and Safety Task Force and PAHO/WHO to ensure that all recommendations are implemented and that there is a swift return to normalcy at the BHS .
The Ministry of Education remains committed to working with all stakeholders including the community at large to ensure that our children and teachers have the assurance of a safe and healthy teaching and learning environment. The health and well-being of our citizens and the holistic development of our Nation’s children will always be among our main priorities.
