The claim circulating on social media that the Government intends to dismantle The Berkeley Board of Governors is false. The proposed Education Authority aims to unify and strengthen Bermuda's public school system through collaboration with all stakeholders, including The Berkeley Institute and its Governing Body.

The Berkeley Institute’s rich legacy and contributions are respected and valued. The Government’s focus is on improving outcomes for all students while recognizing the significant roles both maintained and aided schools have played in Bermuda's Public Education System. The suggestion that personal affiliations or associations drive this initiative is baseless and divisive.

Let’s focus on facts, not fear. The goal of education reform is to build a stronger future for all Bermuda students.
