Education Ombudsman sees no systemic approach of Education Ministry to support of teachers in occupied territories
KYIV. Aug 16 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Education Ombudsman Serhiy Horbachov has said that he did not see the systemic policy of the Education and Science Ministry of Ukraine to support Ukrainian teachers in the temporarily occupied territories.
"Teachers in these [temporarily occupied] territories suffer very much, and children also suffer from this, as they are deprived of education. But here, unfortunately, I also do not see a systemic policy of our ministry to support our teachers who were forced to stay in the occupied territories," he said during a panel discussion on the subject "Protection of the Rights and Interests of Children during the War" on Tuesday.
The ombudsman noted that Ukraine actually cannot effectively influence the situation with education in the temporarily occupied territories, but it can support children and teachers.
According to Horbachov, it is also not clear what to do with the situation when many children from the occupied territories were forcibly taken to Russia or Belarus.
