Very good move by the police. A disgrace to principals and teachers. Their students will follow the same. During my time never heard such protests.

Bad Example To The Children Wednesday, 26 June 2024 01:48 PM

Now they will need medical leave and doctors will be doing a roaring business! These teachers are setting a bad example to the children. Anyway, hope their parents will teach them the consequences of any action.

Clearly they are not fit to be teachers. This is what happens when these unemployable JVP/NPP indoctrinated undergraduates are given teaching positions.

The Minister should immediately initiate negotiations to address the grievances of the school Principals and Teachers, and solve the problems if not only the students will suffer.

Ban jvp and peratugami. Announce both as terrorists organization and give power to army to terminate these union terrorists. RW can easily win the next election with that.

When the grievances are overlooked what else can the teachers do than coming out in numbers?

School enrollment has dropped said the minister. Teachers giving tuition and not teaching in class. If students don't come for tuition they fail the subject in school. These so called teachers are not in a position to demand anything. Go home.

These teachers don't care about innocent children. They earn a lot by giving tuition. Some have classes till mid night. No need to listen to their demands.
