Summary:

  • Fenprof considers additional negotiations for salary increases for cooperating teachers.

  • The expected increase is between €80 and €90 per month.

Discontent Among Educators

The National Federation of Teachers (Fenprof) is considering requesting an additional negotiation regarding the salary increase for cooperating teachers, which is expected to range between €80 and €90 per month. This comes after the government approved a proposal on Wednesday to grant this supplement to teachers supervising interns, despite ongoing negotiations on the matter. The decision has sparked protests from various teacher unions, who deem it a significant disrespect to the negotiation process.

The unions argue that moving forward with the decision while discussions are still pending undermines their bargaining rights and the integrity of the educational system. Fenprof expressed its disappointment, highlighting the need for respect and proper negotiation channels within the educational framework.
