POED Expresses Disappointment over Education Evaluation Legislation

POED expressed its disappointment with the unilateral submission of the bill on the evaluation of teachers to the Parliament by the Ministry of Education, as well as its vote by the DISY, DIKO and DIPA parties. The organization accuses the Ministry of Education for an uncompromising stance on key positions that were not scientifically substantiated, and believes that the new legislation will not improve the education system, but will create additional problems. POED also denounces an orchestrated effort to discredit the trade union movement and teachers, with an increase in unsubstantiated complaints and disparaging behavior. It commits to continuing its struggle to improve legislation and provide substantial support for Public School.
