Krami criticizes teachers and students en masse
Lebanon is experiencing a decline in the educational situation at the start of the new school year in the public sector, due to decisions made by the Ministry of Education under Reema Karamy's leadership. These decisions have led to school closures and a deterioration in teaching performance. The ministry announced measures such as banning hiring contracts with teachers without the minister's approval, which resulted in the cancellation and fragmentation of thousands of contracts, as well as protests by school administrators and teachers. They describe these decisions as harmful to the academic year and as causing shortages of educational materials, especially in elementary schools that mainly rely on contracted teachers. Additionally, the issue also concerns the fate of students in transitional grades who were either expelled or had their grades lowered below the normal passing mark, threatening the stability of the school year and further degrading the quality of education in the public sector. The authorities argue that these changes were implemented without prior preparation or consultation with stakeholders, exacerbating the crisis and risking a disconnect between formal education and aspirations for reform and development. Meanwhile, figures indicate that tens of thousands of contracted teachers have not received their financial rights for over a year.
