Protest at Education Ministry Continues

Contracted teachers in Lebanon staged a protest outside the Ministry of Education against the decision by the Minister of Education to freeze the contracts of 3,500 teachers, including 1,500 employed on daily contracts before noon and 2,000 from the school funds. The protesters expressed their confusion at the start of the school year, as schools opened with only a limited number of students and faced a shortage of teachers. They demanded to know the reasons for not paying the dues of teachers from the school funds funded by UNICEF and questioned the impact of the freezing decision. They also criticized the Minister's reversal of the decision to close schools with fewer than 50 students, and questioned the double standards between contract teachers and permanent staff. The protesters issued a call to escalate their activities to achieve teachers’ rights, affirming that public schools belong to no one and emphasizing that teachers are an essential part of the educational process.
