And now, the schools

Dear all,

As you may already know, students' taxes next school year will be higher, between 250 and 280 euros. All civil servants will see their salary reduced AGAIN. What's more, there is a Royal Decree in project which says that teachers from the official schools will be liable to be transferred to Secondary Schools, baccalaureate or vocational training. 

You may not know that doing courses and improving our knowledge as teachers is a must and a right as well. But in the last 4 years there haven't been many courses to improve our teaching practice. 

I'm afraid that these tendencies are all heading to eliminate the Official Schools of Languages. I suppose the plan is to offer foreign language teaching to private business. 

I just feel we need to be informed.

Hello,
This kind of news confirm that we will have to flee the country looking for new horizons.
Best regards.

Hello everybody:
I understand looking for new horizons abroad is a good idea but I would like to suggest a different attitude: as students at language schools, maybe we should fight for our public language schools.
