We warned a long time ago that we will introduce a green certificate in the building of the Ministry of Education and Science. The access of citizens is not hindered by this regime, only the administration of the Ministry of Education and Science. This was stated by the Minister of Education and Science Acad.

“There are areas in the country where the situation is worse. 5.18% of teachers in the country have been diagnosed in the country. Most are in Blagoevgrad, the least in Targovishte. 1.98 are infected students. Most patients are in Sofia. It is possible that in the next two weeks we will have record values, “he admitted.
“The health authorities are deciding what proportion of students should leave school. The Ministry of Education and Science decides whether to study online. Our goal was to complete the first term, especially for the young and those students who are about to graduate. We are following the numbers “, specified Minister Denkov.
“We already have tests for the first week after the interim vacation. We will be able to start the second term in person if the wave breaks. The question of catching up with the material will remain “, explained Acad. Nikolai Denkov

“We have been in a state of emergency for two years. The question is to do our best in this difficult situation, “he said.
“There is a certain shortage of funds for science. The question of the effectiveness of the use of these funds has been raised. The discussion on the issue continues, “said the Minister of Education.
Earlier today, scientists from the National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (NIMH) sent an open letter to Prime Minister Kiril Petkov asking why NIMH is being transferred from the Ministry of Education to the Ministry of Environment and Water with the draft State Budget Act for 2022 d.
The institute is asked why this move was undertaken “despite the three extremely successful years for the Institute after his departure from the BAS and his transfer to the Ministry of Education and Science.” NIMH states that with the abolition of the right to a delegated budget and the formation of a transitional balance for NIMH in the State Budget Act for 2022, they are deprived of the opportunity to participate in international and national research projects and programs, as well as receive funds from them .
“The Ministry of Education and Science does not have a single institute, this one (NIMH) appeared three years ago. Under the Law on the Promotion of Research, the Ministry of Education and Science deals with the creation of policies and the organization of their implementation. We have no commitment to have specific institutes under our umbrella. All institutes in our country are either at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, or at the Agricultural Academy, or at the higher schools. We have institutes at various other ministries – for example, the Institute of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases is attached to the Ministry of Health, the Institute of Defense is attached to the Ministry of Defense. Our role is to be equally distant and equally fair to all institutes in Bulgaria. In no way did I want to change the status by which the NIMH is financed, “explained the Minister of Education.
