Gaps in Legislation Regarding Appointments of Teachers with Serious Disabilities
September 11, 2025
The Education Committee has identified gaps in the regulations concerning the appointment of teachers, particularly those with serious health problems. The Ministry of Education acknowledges the issue and plans to propose amendments. Teachers with chronic illnesses are assigned to schools far from their residences, causing significant challenges. There have been strong protests from patient and disability organizations. These teachers are negatively affected as decisions are not made based on their needs.
