The Deputy Minister of Education informed today Wednesday about the strengthening and continuous upgrading of special education and training Domna Michailidou the president of SYRIZA PS Stefanos Kasellakis.

As Ms. Michailidou reports in her post on social networks, she welcomed the new president of SYRIZA, Stefanos Kasselakis, at the Kallithea Special Vocational Training Workshop.

“We are always next to teachers, to the problems and challenges faced by school units, no matter how much the new president of SYRIZA tried to convince us otherwise.

During the visit, we talked with teachers, students and I had the opportunity to inform the President of SYRIZA about one of the main priorities of our Government. Strengthening and continuous upgrading of special education and training. What have we done?

  • 20,000 recruitment of special education teachers, responding to the increased needs of our children.
  • 4,719 appointments of permanent special education teachers in the last four years.
  • 3,200 psychologists and social workers in the last four years.
  • Horizontal salary increase for the educational staff” says Ms. Michailidou in her post and adds:

“Everyone’s goal, I want to believe, is to create an even more outgoing and inclusive school, in which every child has a place and develops, without discrimination. We look forward to a constructive dialogue with the opposition and not to communication shows for the cameras. In a dialogue with proposals, which we will listen carefully and why not and we will adopt where there is common ground. After all, our generation’s job is not to simply expose the problems. Our generation’s job is to solve them. This is what we will continue to do. With stubbornness and commitment”.
