(3 years ago)Since October last year, 26 teachers in the Pristina municipality have not received salaries, because they do not figure out the salary list. While these teachers say they were unaware of the problem, the Ministry of Education confirms the budget sharing for their salaries. Gjimnazi Director “Ahmet [...]
The problem is to the state treasury, he doesn't accept only as much as they retire, those when they retire 2 or 5 then the others are accepted and the education directorate has made the effort to put them on the list for salaries, but many have a big problem because of the large number of teachers compared to the number of students”, Metaj said.
In other Pristina schools too, there are teachers who have not received their salaries. School director “Ali Sokoli”, Flamur Buyupi, said such cases have occurred in the past, but teachers have finally been paid.
There have been such situations in this matter before, but none of the teachers have been left free. Pays are paid retroactively as I'm aware of”, Buyup said.
The education ministry said that the paying of teachers is in municipal competencies, accusing the latter that the budget shared for education workers is misusing it. From the Education Directorate in Pristina, they have refused to address the issue.
“August, it has shared a budget with Grand Special for pre-university education based on the number of students for each municipality. The employment and payment of all teachers employed in the education system is in the competence of municipalities. According to one analysis we did last year, we found that only 163 positions have been met, and a total of 357 seats remain. Unfortunately, these positions have been blocked by the municipalities themselves, even though the budget is in advance of”, AugustI said.
Teachers who have not been paid since October last year hope since March their name will figure on the salary list.
