Flow enhances internet for teachers

She added, ‘for those teachers who are Flow customers we upgraded their internet services at home, provided them with backup power supply in the form of UPS as well as increased data to others on their mobile phones.’

“While things aren’t quite back to normal we should not forget that the hurricane season is almost here and officials have predicted that it will be an active one. Therefore, the gifting of the uninterrupted power supply will certainly assist teachers in the event that there is a power outage, giving them a couple additional hours to support their Flow landline and internet services during a storm,” Sealy stated.

General Secretary of the BUT, Herbert Gittens said he is happy that Flow thought about the t the teachers.

“Our teachers have been going above and beyond the call of duty in providing high quality education via the online platform. I know many of them have had issues with their internet connections due to the fact that so many persons are still working from home at this time. We are therefore pleased that Flow has come the aid of the teachers,” he said.
