Eğitim Sen reacted against the ministry
Education and Science Workers’ Union (Eğitim Sen) Şırnak Branch President, Serhat Uğur, has reacted against Ministry of National Education (MEB) announcing teachers will be taken into in-service training.
“This practice has neither legal nor logical base. Is the MEB becoming the buttress of government’s war policies?”
Uğur stating that recently military articles are being delivered to the region said, “Our schools and dormitories will most probably be turned into headquarters”. (YY/TK)
