Janevska: School with Resource Centre Should Engage Educational Assistants

Education Minister Vesna Janevska said that the Education Ministry already completed all procedures for the employment and engagement of educational assistants for children with special needs.

“Once the Ministry completes the procedures, then it is up to the schools with resource centres to open the call for engagement of assistants. 815 educational assistants already signed their employment contracts, and we are to engage another 200 too.

No child should stay at home and not be able to follow lessons in school. In every school there are teachers, inclusive teams, psychologists and defectologists, all ready to welcome the children,” Janevska said, calling upon all parents who have children with disabilities to let them go to school.
