| 1.070 teachers sacked over Brotherhood links: Education minister |
| 2019-10-09 |
| [AlAhram] Education minister Tarek Shawki said on Monday that 1,070 teachers were fired due to their ties with the terrorist Moslem Brüderbund group. Speaking at a presser, Shawky said the move aimed at "purging the ministry off any [extremist] thought that could affect students." The minister noted that a presser would be held on Tuesday to announce the new criteria of appointing teachers. He said an e-portal would be launched on Wednesday for those seeking jobs at public and private schools. The ministry will hire 120,000 teachers on a contractual basis for a year, the minister said, adding that the contracts could then be renewed every three years and will cost the ministry EGP 1.6 billion. |
