The municipalities come up with proposals for compensation of lost hours

In this letter, mayors have opposed the compensation of hours on weekends, and for that they have given several reasons.

<x0) It would increase heating and maintenance spending, now when in this category of expenditures, they are recognising high rates as costs, which harm municipal budgets. The action in this form, in addition to increasing the financial cost of heating, even increases the cost of electricity, which conflicts with government energy saving measures”, the proposal of mayors to Nagavci is said in other cases.

There are also several other proposals on how instruction should not be maintained during rest days for many reasons.

But the Kosovo Communist Association has proposed how and in what way to compensate for lost hours in the education sector.

For the compensation of lost classes due to the general education strike, let it take place by adding five hours of work to every student within the week in terms of regular working days, so that it would be easier for all participants in the learning process, and would ensure the standards required for normal development of the teaching process, which the municipal leaders have expressed. Trusting in your willingness to review your decision to compensate for lost classes, we expect to review the inclusion of our proposals on this issue that distracts us all, said the AKK letter.

But this proposal has not received answers from the education ministry

Sazan Ibrahimi director of the Kosovo Communist Association has told him that the education ministry has not yet returned answers to the proposal.

Until right now, the AKK has no answer for the mayors' proposal how to compensate for lost hours in education”, he has said. Before this proposal, the Ministry of Education has issued a decision on lost hours and how they will be compensated.

The decision is strongly opposed by the United Education Union, but also the Parents' Council.
