Education Ministry begins new school year amid transfer issues

According to the content of the article, the Ministry of Education and Higher Education has begun the new academic year by issuing arbitrary transfer decisions against teachers who previously participated in protests refusing to receive their full and regular salaries. These decisions primarily targeted the Hebron and Bethlehem districts and are given as a form of punishment for their involvement in earlier protests, without any educational or technical justification. The Teachers' Union is involved in implementing these policies, despite acknowledging their illegality, while the Teachers' Coordinating Committee faces security persecution and obstacles in expressing their demands. Teachers are dealing with difficult conditions, calling for increased financial support and improvements in transportation conditions, openly threatening to carry out widespread strikes. This occurs amid declining education quality and increased educational loss due to the short school hours, despite their demands to extend the school week to five days to mitigate the impact on students.
