Schools need more Teachers!!!

We’ve already entered the new year and four teaching months have been completed and many schools in Zakynthos still have not been provided with teachers within some lessons.

Some recruitment may have taken place over the last few weeks, but there are still gaps within the teaching areas and students are wondering when they will be covered as in five months time the school year will have been completed.

Schools of Secondary Education in Zakynthos record shortcomings in teaching of Physics, English, Art, Music and Computer Studies. More specifically, the shortcomings relate to 7 teachers needed to fill the gaps and most are needed for the Music School.

The “Teachers Training Rally Committee” and ELME President Fotis Provis informed the Ministry of Education that they were able to know at a very high rate from the beginning of the year the shortcomings that exist in each school to make its program. This figure reaches 95% and the fact that many vacancies are covered by temporary teachers shows the political direction of the Ministry.

At the moment in Zakynthos it is noted that from the 320 teachers within secondary schools 82 of them are substitutes.

“At the end of the first term and despite having to pack 31 pupils in each department, Zakynthos is still in need of 7 teachers, without counting at least 110 hours of music lessons at the Music School which has been unaccounted for. This situation cannot continue! The education of children will not be sacrificed by the governmental tale of their ways, and the lie of “exiting” from the Memoranda. We will not allow governmental games on the backs of students by prolonging the unacceptable situation of indecision,” notes the” Teacher’s Training Rally Committee “.

In particular, the teachers that are needed are as follows:

• In the 1st Senior High school – Art

• Arts and Technology at the 3rd High school

• At Music School, 110 hours of Music lessons are lost every week due to their politics of indecision

• At the high school Katastariou, Art

• Vacancies in Technology at Machairadou High school

• Art at the high school at Vanato

• Technical specialties at the EPAL (technical school)

• At the high school – senior high school Volimes, pupils are not taught Physics and Art
