                       Teachers’ strikes in Greece

 Civil servants and teachers in Greece keep on with their strikes. This is the second week of actions of protest and the forces of PAME seem determined to ramp up the struggle. They are on a strike against the government’s anti-popular policy, which includes mainly dismissals and suspensions in the public sector.

pame-ekpaideutikwnPAME calls on all the teachers in Greece to take action in schools and to reveal the grotesque role of the Golden Dawn. To reinforce the front with the employees of the Private Sector and to inform everyone about the upcoming strikes.

Meanwhile, the teachers of primary education were attacked by repression forces, outside the Attica Regional Department of Education, where they gathered at seven o’ clock in the morning, in order to demonstrate against the suspension regime and the cut back of jobs. What is really painful for both primary-secondary education and the teachers is the fact that this year schools have to cope with 18.000 less teachers than last year.
