Educator Dexter Warren protests outside Esplanade Mall, expressing frustration with the Ministry of Education over teacher treatment.
Grenada: An educator with seventeen years in service came out for a solo protest in Saint George, Grenada on Tuesday following the transfers announced by the Ministry of education. Educator Dexter Warren described the movement as ‘Unjust’ and called out the authorities while citing his frustration.
The protestor stood in front of the Esplanade mall and while protesting, he was seen holding boards and chart papers, where he wrote his demands and outlined his frustration over the Ministry of Education. Warren states that he has written to the Ministry of Education several times in the past years, but his concerns were never heard, and he consistently went unanswered. He wrote eight different points outlining the demands of teachers which are listed below:
The protestor as he put ahead his demands, received immense support online. Netizens called out that bullying against teachers is a prevailing issue in the country which should be brought to light.
A user named Joslyn Peters wrote on Facebook, “Teachers in this country have rights, and they deserve protection from bullying. Unfortunately, the Public Service Commission often listens to principals who perpetrate this bullying against their own staff. I speak from experience and will continue to advocate against bullying, disrespect, injustice, discrimination, and marginalization in the workplace.”
She further added that teachers should know their rights and should wisely utilise their powers.
