ANEP Suspends Virtual Transition Ordered by CFE Until Thursday
The decision was announced by Pablo Caggiani after a dialogue session at Dinatra. The measure had been challenged by the teachers' union, which launched a 48-hour national strike.
ANEP decided to put on hold, until Thursday, the implementation of the transition to virtual classes that the Consejo de Formación en Educación had defined in response to the occupations of institutes.
According to El Telégrafo, the decision was communicated by ANEP president Pablo Caggiani after a dialogue session at Dinatra.
The CFE resolution had been rejected by the Sindicato de Docentes de Formación en Educación, which described it as a “covert essentiality” and called a 48-hour national strike.
In Paysandú, according to El Telégrafo, the local teaching group joined the occupation of the IFD Ercilia Guidali de Pisano.
The conflict comes amid the rejection by students and teachers of the plan to grant teaching degrees to professors with 50% of the program completed and eight years of seniority. The president of the local group, Natalia Schäfer, said, according to that outlet, that the resolution “boicots the students’ union measures” and alters the teaching employment relationship.
