A decision on the way forward regarding the fire-affected Palmiste Government Primary School will be made this week, according to the Education Minister.

The school went up in flames during the early hours of last Thursday.

Speaking in Parliament today, Dr Nyan Gadsby-Dolly explained that the situation is being addressed by the Ministry and local government officials.

The Minister could not yet give a firm date for the works to demolish the affected structures and removal of the rubble.
