Association of Contracted Primary School Teachers Announces Escalation as Zero Hour Approaches
The Association of Contracted Teachers in Basic Education in Lebanon has warned of escalating protests, emphasizing that the government has failed to secure their basic rights despite months having passed since they submitted a draft law aimed at improving their situation. They explained that the law was rejected in the parliamentary council due to the authorities' lack of interest in the education sector. Teachers in border areas and affected groups are in urgent need of its approval, especially after losing their schools and jobs. The association noted that the hourly wage for contracted teachers is $8.20, which has decreased in value due to the war, and that the necessary funding to pay their rights is unavailable, with unfair treatment towards them. The union confirmed its intention to escalate protests and threatened with street movements before the start of the school year, stating that the hour of reckoning has come closer.
