The National Education Union, part of the Democratic Confederation of Labor, has criticized the management of several educational and pedagogical files in Morocco's Souss-Massa region. The union's local office met on September 26 to assess meetings with various parliamentary services since the beginning of the year. They emphasized the importance of adopting a participatory approach to address issues related to educational projects and settle financial dues for educational and administrative staff.
The union's local office criticized what they described as the haphazard and random management of the leadership school project. They argued that implementing the project has placed additional burdens on teachers and principals. The union also expressed concerns over individual assignments outside territorial groups and random mergers. They called for an investigation into the poisoning of teachers during training related to leadership schools.
The union demanded the settlement of the administrative status of educational and administrative staff who recently changed their framework. They also requested the implementation of sports center results and completion of remaining procedures according to ministerial notes. Furthermore, they called for the reopening of the Institute for Artistic and Literary Development and the activation of competition results related to it.
The union urged the acceleration of payment of all financial compensations and dues for educational and administrative staff. They also demanded the application of regulations organizing functional and administrative housing equally and without discrimination. The union's local office condemned the transfer of public educational institutions to the private sector, considering it a threat to the public school system.
The union called on teachers and education professionals in the Souss-Massa region to prepare for various legitimate forms of protest to defend their rights, gains, and dignity. The union's concerns and demands reflect broader issues in Morocco's education sector, including the management of leadership schools and the status of educational staff.
The leadership school project aims to improve education in Morocco, but its implementation has faced criticism from various stakeholders. The union's criticism highlights the need for more effective management and communication between educational authorities and stakeholders. The situation underscores the challenges of implementing educational reforms in Morocco.
