The acting governor of the Primorsky Territory Konstantin Shastakov clearly described his position on the issue of preserving the jobs of teachers and educators.
"Those who work with children, teachers and educators, will not be fired according to the decision of the government of the Primorsky Territory or the municipality. The state's position on the issue is clear. There are no cuts."
– said Konstantin Shastakov at a team meeting the day before.
It should be noted that in all municipalities of Primorye the reform to create unified education centers continues. As part of the initiative, kindergartens, schools and other educational institutions are united into one legal entity with one leadership. Similar centers are already operating in 17 institutions in seven municipalities, including Vladivostok, Artyom, Partizansk and Spasak-Delny.
At the same time, requests from residents regarding changes in the education system continue to be received at the regional management center. People complain about streamlining and cuts in schools and kindergartens (teachers, speech therapists, music and physical education teachers, speech pathologists, psychologists and other experts are being laid off).
Konstantin Shestakov emphasized that the issue of retaining teaching staff requires special attention and pointed out that previously this order was not fully implemented. At the meeting, the head of the region once again outlined the position of the Primorye authorities: the teaching staff should not suffer as a result of the unification of the educational institutions. Shastakov stated that he had taken control of the situation and would personally check the execution of the order.
