[etni] Planned Improvements for Education

**** ETNI on the web http://www.etni.org.il   http://www.etni.org   ****

Greetings, all!

I suggest that Barry S., and our other colleagues that
don't watch T.V. on Shabbat, get a hold of the
interview that the Minister of Education gave on
Shelly Haimovich's program last week. 

Ms. Livnat, or some remarkably effective double from
"Eretz Nehederet", proposed the following
improvements:

1. Fire thousands of teachers
2. Extend the school day to be equal to work days that
real workers work
3. Let the teachers who didn't get fired take extra
classes (i.e., those classes of the fired teachers) to
fill their working day.
4. The remaining teachers would get paid more
(although it wasn't clear if she was talking about
getting paid for the classes or having a real increase
in the base salary to indicate that we have really
started to work.)

As Ms. Livnat stated, it's time that we learned that
we have to start working. 

Btw, a previous message with an analysis of what is
behind this revolutionary improvement was censored
from our list. I hope that this more factual reporting
of events that directly effect us as English teachers
will be allowed to appear on ETNI.

Merry Christmas to all our Christian colleagues. 

Jimmy
