Press Release- MUT welcomes the proposed medical professional support services in schools
The MUT refers to the communication issued by the Education Ministry regarding the introduction of medical professional support services to students who have medical needs in schools. The Union has been raising the difficulties faced by schools and educators in dealing with students’ medical situations. The support required goes beyond the teaching and learning being provided by educators, hence the need for medical support. The Union welcomes the reassurance provided by the government that this service shall not affect the engagement of LSEs. The MUT shall continue discussions with the Education Ministry about the implementation of this measure.
