According to the media report, Minister Bytyqi, among other things, said that difficulties have been expected in this process, because according to him, this is the biggest project that has been implemented these years in MAST.
He stressed that all measures have been taken for the process to go smoothly, respecting all legal acts in force.
The minister reportedly mentioned the new Law for School Texts, saying this law has not yet been passed for budgetary reasons, but he stressed that it has not prevented this process at all.
Speaking of the need for new textbooks, Minister Bytyqi cited the contradiction of texts with the new curriculum, as well as numerous errors which have had old texts.
Among other things, he spoke of all the prosperity and work that has been done since the beginning, as well as the expenses that have been made throughout the process, which are about 76 thousand euros in total.
As for the quality of the texts, Minister Bytyqi stressed that the responsibility of the text assessment is kept by the correspondents, while MAST has the obligation to make sure that the process reaches its end properly.
In this commission, Bytyqi also mentioned the ECPT's decision to include only those on the final list of winning texts that were posted on the preliminary list above 3.
However, he stressed that MAST has decided to pilot all textbooks and that if it is noted that a text is not available for teaching, it will be withdrawn and the reactors will respond to contracts made.
During this meeting, the need for reorganizing the educational system was also discussed. In this case, Minister Bytyqi praised Kamenica's chairman, who has started with such a project and said they have offered MAST support. While stressing that this reshuffle is necessary throughout Kosovo and has already been asked to officially submit precise information about school objects so that access to pre-school institutions can be seen
