The secretary general of the Teachers' Union, Yaffa Ben-David, attacked the intention to continue regular school studies even during the expected lockdown.
"The desire of the top officials of the Ministry of Education to exclude the education system during the lockdown is scandalous and shows blatant disregard for the lives and health of teaching staff. Teaching staff will continue to support students and teach remotely, as they did in previous lockdowns with great success," Ben David said in an interview with Kan News.
