The PM Drew-led SKNLP Cabinet has announced and reaffirmed its decision that the Basseterre High School will be reconstructed and renovated on the original allegedly contaminated site. This was announced in a Cabinet Briefing, which was issued on Monday, August 22, 2022.

Construction of the new Ultra Modern BHS had recently begun with 100s of persons applying for jobs and were being interviewed with scores already hired as land preparation and other site construction activities began over the summer.

The Original site of the BHS remains the heart of the controversy which spurred the proposed relocation of the school and construction of a new ultra modern high school. Hundreds of Teachers and School children were falling ill at the school and most if not all attributed their illness to issues at the school and its environs. CARPHA was engaged to locate the possible contamination that caused the illness but their findings were inconclusive. Erring on the side of caution the PM Harris Led Team Unity administration made the decision to build a brand new Ultra Modern High School at a new much larger site.
