Proposals for Supporting Contractual Teachers with Health Issues
November 13, 2025
The Education Committee of the Parliament raised concerns about the poor treatment of contractual teachers facing serious health issues. These teachers are assigned to schools far from their families, making their situation particularly challenging. The committee's president, Pavlos Mylonas, presented a bill to ensure these teachers' rights during placement processes. The proposal is supported by educational organizations and seeks to amend legislation for better support of teachers with health needs. The Educational Services Committee emphasized the need to comply with maternity and paternity protection provisions.
