Teachers' Unions Push Back Against Government's Proposal
The Ministry of Education aims to provide a monthly stipend of between €80 and €90 to cooperating teachers who guide student teachers in schools. This proposal was presented to the unions on Thursday, who met with the ministry for nearly six hours to discuss various aspects of initial teacher training.
The unions have expressed strong opposition to the proposal, arguing that such a low remuneration is insufficient for the responsibilities involved in mentoring student teachers. They are advocating for a reduction in teaching hours to ensure that cooperating teachers have adequate time to support their trainees effectively.
