State may seek back-to-work orders against teachers
Haaretz - Oct. 28, 2007

Education Minister Yuli Tamir and Finance Minister Roni Bar-On are scheduled 
to meet this morning to discuss the teachers' strike at high schools and 
some junior highs, now entering its 16th day. On the agenda for the meeting 
is the possibility of asking the National Labor Court to issue back-to-work 
orders for the faculty.

Sunday afternoon the Union of Local Authorities' (ULA) leadership will meet 
with the head of the Secondary School Teachers Association (SSTA), Ran Erez, 
to see if the stalemated negotiations can be advanced.

Meanwhile, the teachers' protest is expanding, with demonstrations and 
informational events planned throughout the country this week, and set to 
include parents, pupils and university students supportive of the campaign.

in the government in view of the crisis in the education system.
