The Ministry of Education has pushed back the opening of schools to next week Wednesday, September 3.



Chief Education Officer in the Ministry Jasper Lawrence says the decision was made in order to allow some students and teachers to be better prepared following the effects of Tropical Storm Gustav.



He says those schools which are unable to reopen on Wednesday due to damage sustained during the storm should make contact with their respective regional offices to arrange for a later date.
