Knesset member and chairman of the Knesset Education Committee Ram Shefa has criticized the Ministry of Education for neglecting to consider a large portion of its students when it comes to a plan for exiting the coronavirus crisis.

"The Ministry of Education has forgotten one-third of its students -- all those from seventh to tenth grade. The MInistry must present a plan several months in advance in order to give hope to these students who are stuck at home in a difficult emotional state," Shefa said in an interview with Kan News.
