ALMOST 45,000 students decided to stay the course in their efforts to get an education on Monday in the face of a call by the TT Unified Teachers’ Association (TTUTA) to have teachers stay away from their duties on the very first day of the 2022/2023 academic year.
Roughly 70 per cent of teachers, however, heeded TTUTA’s call.
Newsday’s photographers captured these images of students who braved the weather and traffic to make it to school on Monday.
