Junior schools open after six-week strike

The teachers’ strike came to an end after six weeks and pupils returned to the classroom on Monday 30 October.

Junior school did not start in mid-September as normal in Greece, but two days before the end of October. The strike had worried parents, who saw the school term being put off indefinitely.

Now the problem is how to make up the lost teaching hours. The solution proposed by the Ministry of Education together with the Teachers’ Unions is to add one hour’s teaching daily.

I have missed the recent news so it would have been useful to know why there was a strike and how it was resolved.
