There is no way that there is no concern among colleagues in this situation. Given that not only are their names public – they have agreed to them being public, but when threats of suicide are made against them and when pictures and questions about their home addresses begin to be circulated in the information parties of said party, then I completely understand colleagues who are worried. This is what the author of the teachers’ signature against the changes in the Law on Preschool Education – NPMG teacher Boris Iliev – said in the morning block of BNT. Their signature was blacklisted by “Vazrazhdane”.
He drew attention to the fact that the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports, the Vice President and other concerned institutions have already reacted to the case.
The question is no longer debatable – whether you are “for” or “against” the changes may be debatable, but it is not debatable whether in a democratic country you can afford to threaten people who have expressed a civil position, Boris Iliev also said.
A good teacher, when giving tasks to a student, should be clear and know what the student should do. When a law is given to us two weeks before the beginning of the school year with an unclear text, this is not a well-posed task, said Nasko Stamenov, also a teacher at NPMG. According to him, this will lead to stress for teachers. They are faced with one of two choices: either remain silent on all subjects or wonder what to say without falling under the law, he added.
According to Boris Iliev, teachers are not only mediators of academic knowledge, as they constantly deal with the emotional problems of students. It is not humane to refuse to discuss these issues in them, and the law does not allow us to do so. The teachers who signed the statement, since they do not support the changes in the law, do they support the propaganda? asked Boris Iliev rhetorically.
