Culture of unfair treatment of teachers has ended: Shafeeu

Education Minister Dr Ismail Shafeeu has said the culture of treating teachers unfairly no longer exists at the Education Ministry.

Speaking at the 'Ahaa' forum jointly organised by the President's Office and PSM, Shafeeu said that when this administration took office, it received numerous complaints from more than 100 teachers about warnings and threats of suspension.

However, he said no teacher had faced action under this administration, even for criticising the government.

“Unlike before, our government treats the public with compassion and kindness. The culture of intimidation and unfair treatment of teachers no longer exists at the Education Ministry. By establishing such a positive environment, we will, God willing, achieve good results,” Shafeeu said.
