In the video: the Prime Minister and the Minister of Education in a statement on the extension of the school year (Walla system!)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's announcement of the extension of the school year until the end of July provoked outrage among students, parents and teachers.

The education system feels that the program will not really contribute to closing the gaps created due to the prolonged closures and distance learning.



The chairman of the National Student and Youth Council, Yuval Godker, told Walla! That the proposed solution is not expected to help students in the confused education system.

The damage has already been done!

Repair, has long time! "She said." Instead of solutions for the future decision-makers choose to hold on to this year nails, which can lead to many students slip through their fingers into the cracks ".



Godkr, twelfth grader in Beersheba, says there is no point to extend the year The studies are in another month, but we must start planning the way forward for the students.

"Do not hurt the study schedule anymore and do not try to regain lost time that will not come back anyway. Use the time you have for maximum efficiency of learning and thinking for the future. And most importantly - call us to the decision table, and together we will create a strong and stable outline. Together we will go through it on the best side possible, "she said.

During the statement, Education Minister Yoav Galant presented a four-step plan to address the gaps created due to the lengthy closures.

As for the teachers, Galant noted that "any teacher who agrees to join the program will receive an additional salary for the month of July."

Finance Minister Israel Katz noted that his office is sitting with the Ministry of Education to formulate the details of the plan.

"I am working to enable the Prime Minister to come equipped with an education and funding program. I am convinced and hope that all parts of the government will support this initiative," he said.



The deputy chairwoman of the national parent leadership, Odelia Schindroff, expressed concern that the plan in question is merely a declaration of intent and will not be fully realized. "Currently, the plan has no budgetary source and no plan is understood.

The program is available to students and teachers and may be whole communities who fail to recruit teachers, the gap will grow and the students in this form are not sure to come, "she said.



Sindrof expressed optimism, adding that" I hope that there is no spin-election on the backs of parents and indeed the plan is realized, there is no doubt that the children Need a routine, social gatherings, releasing stress and closing gaps.

Hopefully all partners, especially teachers, will lend a hand and help those who need them more than ever.

This is not an extension of the school year - this is an option for courses to close gaps.

But this is also a good start, let's not lose hope. "

"I sincerely hope that there is no election spin on the backs of the parents."

Acting Deputy Mayor and holder of the education portfolio in Rishon Lezion, Liel Even-Zohar, welcomed the government's decision to extend the studies and shorten the summer vacation. "This is what parents and children need at this time.

"Even if in the end it is not implemented by the government, we will, under the guidance of Mayor Raz Kinstlich, make sure to extend the school year for our children and their parents," she said.



Givatayim Mayor Ran Konik also said he was pleased with the decision: The decisions that they listened to the mayors and also came to the obvious conclusion that returning all students to the education system is no less important than returning commerce.

The intention to extend the studies to the month of July is also to be welcomed, it is important to return to the children as many days as 'taken' from them.

I hope that this time the teachers' organizations will also understand this and cooperate fully for the benefit of the children of Israel. "

In contrast, some teachers are less satisfied with the program.

A teacher from a school in the south claims that all the behavior in front of the teachers is a joke.

"There are no more words to describe this farce. It's funny that we as teachers hear what's going to happen to the prime minister at a press conference or from the hypotheses of reporters on tonight's programs. Even the corona projector looks embarrassed," he noted.



The teacher, who chose to remain anonymous, thinks the decision to extend the school year leaves teachers helpless.

"The people upstairs have no idea what it takes in terms of the conduct of the school, the system manager, the administration staff," she said, adding that "I guess a teacher who agrees to the move is a teacher who will really need more money.

This year has been several times more exhausting than a normal school year.

She demanded extra strength from us and presented us with challenges we had not known before.

The great freedom is a must so that we can return with renewed strength. "
