199 teachers, placed in an internship position, are struggling to start their distance training. These teachers took their troubles patiently for over a year. Unfortunately, since their registration on the platform, they have been slow to start their training. In desperation, they held a sit-in yesterday at the Faculty of Science and Technology for Education and Training (Fastef) to challenge the authorities of the Ministry of National Education on their fate.
« We have been officially selected. After this selection, we registered last year, that is to say during the academic year 2019-2020. Until now, training has been slow to take place. We do not know which way to turn. We want us to know exactly where the problem is that would justify the delay in starting our training », Said Mbatté Diop, French teacher.
These teachers do not know which ministerial department their training would depend on when they are tossed between the Ministry of National Education and that of Higher Education, Research and Innovation. They are in the dark and would like to be edified. ” We recently had a communication from the Ministry of National Education through Mamadou Moustapha Diagne who told us that the OS (Editor’s note: Service Orders) will be released this week. We haven’t seen anything yet. The problem is still very serious. And it is not interesting to wait. So far, it is not yet clear where the right information lies. Sometimes we are told that the training will be done remotely, because that is what we were selected for, and sometimes, we are told that it is face-to-face training. Continued the spokesperson for the day.
The secretary general of authentic Cusems supports the cause of these 199 teachers. Dame Mbodj deplores the silence of the Directorate of Training and Communication of the Ministry of National Education on the case. The trade unionist calls on the supervisory ministry to assume its responsibilities.
« They are exposed between two ministries: the Ministry of National Education and the Ministry of Higher Education. People blame themselves while teachers only have their careers. We cannot let this situation continue. Because the ministry must assume its responsibilities through the direction of Training and Communication. Today they are procrastinating. They give no clear argument, no plausible argument as teachers wait to be trained. Teacher training is primarily the system that benefits. When they are well trained, they teach better. And when they teach better, it rubs off on the quality of the education system »Reacted on Radio Futurs medias the secretary general of Cusems / Authentique, Dame Mbodj, who invites her comrades from other unions to unite to demand the start of the training of these 199 teachers.
